Original Note:
This description fits only one the adult influenza vaccines. The reason to use a higher dose is that adults over 65 may have a slower immune response that requires a higher vaccination dose to get immunity. There are other vaccines with similar doses. https://www.aarp.org/health/conditions-treatments/info-2022/older-adults-high-dose-flu-shot.html
