I had no idea that flu itself would cause sepsis, since all I’ve heard from recent reports is that flu, leading to pneumonia, causing sepsis, killed many flu victims. Grateful that we Freepers have so many professionals among us - thanks for that easy-to-understand info.
P.s. so even though we’ve had the pneumonia vaccine, Hubby and I should probably get the flu shot as well, I guess.
The flu causes a sepsis like picture the flu shot is not much help this year but could lighten your symptoms of you get the flu. The pneumonia vaccine only protects against one kind of pneumonia, you can still get a myriad of other kinds. Wash hands eat and rest well and avoid crowds if you can. Stay well!
