Should you get your Covid and flu shots at the same time? New research suggests yes

Covid and flu shots can be safely given at the same time, and according to a small new study, doing so may even confer benefits.

Findings presented Monday at the Vaccines Summit Boston, an annual scientific conference, suggest that giving Covid and flu shots together could produce a stronger antibody response against the coronavirus than administering the vaccines separately.

The study measured the antibody levels of 42 health care workers in Massachusetts who were vaccinated last fall. Twelve of the participants received a bivalent Covid booster and seasonal influenza shot on the same day. Another 30 received the shots on different days within the span of a month.

She could be an animal rights activist who does not want to endanger lab rats with unproven vaccines.

Not gaan do it.   Wouldn't be prudent.   Not at this juncture.

I was basically bullied into getting the first Covid vaccine because of work requirements. I haven't got a flu shot since the Marine Corps made me in 1996 and I ended up flat on my back six hours later.

No more. I'm done putting these unnecessary witches brews in my body. I'll still get vaccines for stuff like shingles that'll do real damage but I'm done with shots for stuff that's just going to put me in bed for a couple of days. I've had Covid twice (once before the vaccine and once after), the risks from Covid and flu shots outweighs the risks from the disease for most healthy people.

My only and last flu shot was around 15 years ago.
I still feel the buzzing in my legs to this day...

So far, I’ve only seen one advert from AB Health Services about CCP-Coronavirus shots. Basically, it said that such shots were available and they also had flu shots mixed with the clot shots. The tone of the advert was quite neutral.

On the other hand, I’ve seen multiple adverts for the ‘Pfizer-BioNTech Comirnaty COVID-19’ kill shot from Pf*ckin’ Pfizer. These adverts focused on pictures of happy, smiling families and fear mongering that ‘Covid likes crowds’ and how Covid mutates rapidly and really BAD variants could arise. They also suggest that if it has been over six months since your last shot or, since having had Covid, you need a booster to boost your immunity. There are just so many inaccuracies in their BRAVO SIERRA, er, ‘sales pitch’, that I cannot begin to list them!

Fear sells, to the brainwashed and ill-informed!

I am a ‘pureblood’ and have no intention of subjecting myself to ‘genetic mutation’ shots, just to enlarge the wealth of the elite. Pf*ck Pfizer and their elitist pals!

And, by the way, while I’m at it,

LET’S GO BRANDON!

LET’S GO TRUE-DOLT!

Yes, that smelled heavy of a “canned” narrative.

You call yourself 'exDemMom'. Based on your comment, I would suggest that you STILL think like a Dhimmicrat! As most Dhimmicrats would say, "Baaaaaaa, baaaaaaa!"

I've never gotten a Flu shot and would never go near the mRNA BS, so I suppose I should already be dead 50 times over.

I got my first Flu vaccine in 1976 when I was stationed at McClellan Air Force Base. At a Commander's Call, Colonel Joska told us that after we were dismissed we had to stay in the auditorium for a Flu shot.   The whole Comm Group had to strip down to t-shirts.   The females that wore suggestive bras were embarrassed or flaunting it but a good time was had by all.   I have been getting a flu shot most years since then.

Between you and me I suspect the Flu shots through the years is why I ran all around the country side without a mask and have never been sick for a moment since the scam-demic started.   That and taking mega-vitamins and minerals, including zinc.

Lest you don’t understand above, in 1976 we were still wearing pickle suits and white t-shirts.

I'm not getting either one. My vaxxed and boosted wife has had Covid twice since taking the needle. Before that, I had a very mild case of Covid and have never had it again. I never took the needle. If it's on the CDC recommended list I refuse to take it.

From the CDC website:

Vaccines you need As we get older, our immune systems tend to weaken over
time, putting us at higher risk for certain diseases.
All adults ages 65 and older should make sure they’re up
to date on these vaccines:

COVID-19 vaccine
Flu vaccine (influenza)
Pneumococcal vaccine
Shingles vaccine (zoster)
Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough) or Td
(tetanus and diphtheria)

You may need other vaccines, too
You may need other vaccines based on your age or other
factors, too. Talk with your doctor to learn which vaccines
are recommended for you. This may include:

RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) – adults aged 60 years
or older should talk to their healthcare provider
about getting a single dose of RSV vaccine

You have to MAKE SURE the flu shot you get doesn’t have the COVID poison added to it. We made sure. We’ve always gotten a flu shot, want no part of the Covidpoison.

Study should test those folks for the N-protein antibodies.
Had cov19 in Dec 2021, got antibodies.
They do work, had major exposures twice since then, both times N-antibodies’ level spiked, nature worked on this tax payer-funded flu.

They can use these new injections as suppositories.

“Should you get your Covid and flu shots at the same time? New research suggests yes”

under no circumstance should anyone do this, esp. when one vax is an emergency experimental gene therapy jab ... you won’t know which vax has wrecked your life ... makes it more difficult to avoid a problematic one in the future and you will have a difficult time suing your employer for their vaccine mandates ...

btw, it’s completely insane to start more than one new (to you) medication at the same time under any circumstance, EXCEPT if have an acute illness that’s gonna kill you without the multiple new meds ... otherwise, you won’t be able to tell which of the new meds might be causing intolerable side-effects down the road ...

I never had a flu shot, never had a Covid shot. At this point, I won’t trust the healthcare industry for even a tetanus booster.
