The flu, short for influenza, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by a virus. It can cause mild to severe illness. Serious complications of flu infection can include hospitalization or death.
COVID-19 is also a highly contagious virus that can cause mild to serious illness and complications that include hospitalization or death.
Vaccines are available for protection against both viruses, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends both vaccinations. In addition, the CDC recommends taking every-day preventative measures to stay healthy including frequent handwashing, social distancing and staying home when sick to prevent exposing others.

COVID shots?
Haven’t they heard?
Joe Biden says there is no more COVID!
Dude put the real deal, downhome, big-time whup-ass on it, which scared it so bad it ran completely out of the US to get away from the deadly wrath of Joe Biden, so we are now COVID-free, just as we are free of the polio coming back in the Democrat-controlled third-world country of New York!
So given there is no more COVID left anywhere in America thanks to Joe Biden, why are they giving shots?
Are they unbelievers?
Are they DREGS OF SOCIETY who would dare doubt the word of Joe Biden?
Are they MAGAtards?
Are they semi-fascists?
Is there some kind of insurrection going on down here?
Or WHAT?
