Doctors: influenza vaccinations are more important this fall than ever

Those, who have had COVID-19, are advised to get vaccinated against the flu one month after recovery. Such information is posted on the website of the Republican Center for Hygiene, Epidemiology and Public Health. The flu vaccine this fall is more important than ever, doctors say. Infection can occur with several viruses at once. The combination of COVID-19 and seasonal flu is dangerous. Both viruses can affect lung tissue, causing pneumonia. The influenza vaccine provides the formation of specific immunity against viruses A and B. There is also some scientific evidence that this vaccine can have a positive effect in the prevention of COVID-19.
