TL;DR: Vaccination against influenza has substantial health-related and economic benefits for healthy, working adults and the cost savings were estimated to be $46.85 per person vaccinated.

TL;DR: The dominant model of service utilization is expanded by explicit incorporation of factors outside the individual into a conceptual framework of PTSD treatment initiation, and suggestions regarding the direction of future research and the development of interventions to promote timely help-seeking for PTSD are offered.

TL;DR: Combat exposure may be unavoidable in military service members, but other vulnerability and protective factors also predict PTSD and could be targets for prevention strategies.

TL;DR: Influenza vaccination of healthy working adults is not associated with higher rates of systemic symptoms when compared with placebo injection, and these findings should be useful to physicians and other health care providers as they counsel patients to take advantage of an important opportunity for disease prevention and health protection.
