- What you need to know: With SARS-CoV-2 circulating, and the flu virus right on its heels, healthcare providers suggest flu vaccines this year more than ever.
Although the flu vaccine is not a magic pill – it can’t protect you from COVID-19 or even guarantee you won’t fall victim to the flu – it can reduce how sick you’ll get if you contract influenza and keep you out of the hospital. And during the pandemic, those are two benefits healthcare providers hope you’ll find worth the shot.
