Authors aimed to identify predictors of receiving a flu vaccination, with an emphasis on the impact of race and ethnicity. Using data from the 2011-2012 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) from 27.8 million adults ages 18 and older, authors found that, overall, fewer than 40 percent (35.8 percent) received a flu vaccination within the last year. Blacks were 33 percent less likely to have been vaccinated than whites.

Guidelines recommend that peoples with a high-risk family history of colorectal cancer (CRC) undergo colonoscopy examinations every five years, starting when they are 40 years old. The authors investigated factors associated with colonoscopy screening of individuals with a family history of CRC, focusing on race and ethnicity.
