Doctors Are Advising People to Get Their Shots
While flurona is still something strange and unknown, Dr. Schaffner suggests that using masks and keeping a safe distance can help prevent the spread of both viruses. However, he underlines that getting both influenza and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines is the best defense in this natural battle.
Given the fact that the new coronavirus and the flu are two distinct viruses that are not associated in any way, being vaccinated against both is essential for protection. Unfortunately, the one cannot defend against the other.
While you can still acquire Covid-19 and the flu if you’ve been vaccinated for both, according to Dr. Boyd, the flu and Covid-19 vaccines are great for reducing the chances of developing severe symptoms.
In addition to that, the doctor said that unvaccinated people are the ones who end up in the hospital, due to the severity of their symptoms, rather than the vaccinated. She said that this will also be the case with the flu.
The CDC said that it is perfectly fine to get vaccinated for both Covid-19 and influenza at the same time.
