his study aimed to estimate the end-of-season influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) for the 2024/25 season in Beijing, China. Methods: We used a test-negative design (TND) to assess influenza VE among outpatients with influenza-like illness (ILI) enrolled through the influenza virological surveillance in sentinel hospitals in Beijing from week 44, 2024 to week 14, 2025. Cases were ILI patients who tested positive for influenza; controls were those who tested negative. Results: Among 18,405 ILI patients tested, 3690 (20.0%) were positive for influenza, with A(H1N1)pdm09 as the predominant strain (98.9%). The overall influenza vaccination coverage was 12.4%. Adjusted VE was 48.3% (95%CI: 40.4%-55.3%) against any influenza and 48.2% (95%CI: 40.3%-55.1%) against A(H1N1)pdm09, with the highest VE observed in adults aged 18-59 years (79.0%). The adjusted VE was similar for those vaccinated in 2023/24 only (53.1%) or both 2023/24 and 2024/25 seasons (50.8%), but lower for those vaccinated only in the 2024/25 season (48.5%). The adjusted VE was higher during the epidemic period (52.5%) than in the pre-epidemic (48.1%) and post-epidemic (35.3%) periods. Conclusions: Our findings indicate moderate VE against laboratory-confirmed influenza, especially A(H1N1)pdm09, during the end of the 2024/25 season in Beijing, China. Influenza vaccination provided protective effects across different epidemic periods. These timely estimates support ongoing public health communication and immunization strategies.
