Dr. Sun Tieying, Professor of Respiratory Medicine and Director of Internal Medicine Department of Beijing Hospital, said that many patients were found to be co-infected with COVID-19 and influenza in Wuhan. Entering the flu season, it is very likely that we will face a dual epidemic situation of new coronavirus and flu.
The early symptoms of coronavirus and influenza are similar, including fever, fatigue, and cough, which also means that the difficulty and time of clinically differentiating the two diseases will increase.
There is currently no safe or effective vaccine for COVID-19 but influenza can be prevented by vaccination.

- Q&A -
Who is the flu vaccine recommended for?
China's CDC recommends children, adults with asthma, heart disease, diabetes or a low immune system and pregnant women and those in close contact with children.
What are the side effects?
Influenza vaccines are made from inactivated viruses. Mild side effects, such as nausea, drowsiness, headache, muscle pain and chills, may disappear within a few days.
Is it necessary to get a flu shot every year?
Influenza viruses are constantly changing, and each year's influenza vaccine targets different types of viruses. Although a vaccine cannot prevent all influenza, it is the best way to prevent influenza.
Can I still catch a cold after the flu shot?
It takes about two weeks from the time of vaccination for the vaccine to work. In this period, you may still catch a cold but the symptoms will be much milder.
