Science Flu Has Disappeared Worldwide during the COVID Pandemic

Ive gotten flu shots for years because I was in airplanes a lot. Nothing worse than being in a plane with people coughing, hacking all around you.
I still periodically came down with something that was diagnosed as flu, te shots are only good for certain types?

Since Iv been a senior there are many more vaccines or shots I've had to get, pneumonia (2), whooping cough & shingles (3).
Now if you are a senior they have a more potent flue shot.

 

Anyone who thinks COVID got here in March is kidding themselves ... all those 'horrible cases of the flu' in late 2019 was COVID. The wife had it so bad she couldn't get up three stairs without being out of breath and this was just after getting back from nationals with the HS cheer team she coaches in early February. I was saying last summer that cold/flu season was going to be mild at the same time Fauci and other experts were warning about how bad the season was going to be. Seemed to me they either didn't understand logic or were using fear as a motivator.

 

The last time I got the flu was 1985 or so. I still get the flu shot every year though.

 

The uncle masks are much larger

 

Not to mention the MRS HCP infection rates.

 

You need to wear them on your face instead of bunch them up and shove them behind as if you were a drug mule.

(I'm here to help).

 

Dogs don’t have hands, but I’ve seen plenty who drag their butts.

 

Yeah, and I'm still waiting for that day when I find that damn pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

 

How, how, how did he find out? We worked so hard to keep it secret. What kind of evil genius is he?

 

Honestly I think they'll get there, and it might not be too long before they do it either.

Advances in the technology are now helping researchers to close in on some of the holy grails of vaccine development — such as a universal flu shot that would work against any strain of the virus without being redesigned each year. Others are eyeing jabs against HIV and other top killers in lower-income countries. Such vaccines have eluded scientists often because of the way that pathogens systematically alter their surface proteins to evade immune recognition. Some infectious agents, such as malaria, also have elaborate life cycles that further complicate the process of picking antigens.

RNA vaccines could include instructions for multiple antigens, either strung together in a single strand, or with several RNAs packaged together in a single nanoparticle.
