“This year’s flu season will be particularly brutal, experts say. Usually, flu seasons are easier to handle when some portion of the population has a natural immunity, due to getting infected the previous year. But since many Americans spent last fall and winter relentlessly washing hands and socially distancing, fewer people than normal got the flu. That means an above-average number of people are at risk now, especially as more Americans have let down their guard against Covid in recent months.  The best way to prevent getting the flu is to get the flu vaccine,”.
