A flu shot is incredibly important right now

Two of my friends thought they had coronavirus because the symptoms were similar over 2 weeks time. However, when they both were tested they both came up negative. One of them got sick immediately after a flu shot so I suggested they had gotten sick from the flu shot. However, then two of their friends got the flu too. So, we still aren't sure where the flu came from. However, my wife and I both had flu shots in September or October so my wife and I didn't get the flu because we had the flu shots. 

Since they all got incredibly sick in a way that mimicked Coronavirus I would advise getting a flu shot if you haven't already because one of them nearly had to go to the hospital just from the flu symptoms.

However, wearing a mask is reducing the number of people actually getting the flu to this year as well as reducing coronavirus in places like California where we actually wear masks (at least along the coastal cities from San Diego to Eureka and Arcata in the north.
