That sounds about right. Maybe a bit on the low side. The flu Vaccine is less effective in children. Overall, the CDC rates the effectiveness of this year's jab at 48%, which is enough for herd immunity but not enough to save every individual who gets exposed.

Getting everyone vaccinated would save a lot of lives.
