I don't know what to say about this. I was just sent these two studies. The take, in short - previous flu vax made symptoms of a similar virus worse.

I'd actually love to see the data on flu vax vs COVID-19 outcome. I'm sure the data is there. just needs to be organized. Recommendations were being given without any data.

    are you saying the Pneumonia Vax makes things worse? How about previous contraction of H1N1? :)

    Probably did. All these elderly folks in rest homes tend to be a consistent market. My dad got it. Prevnar. Didn't go well for him. Powerful shot, apparently.

    In any case, it takes the vaccine two weeks at the least to be effective. It seems most folks are dying from pneumonia. Wonder if they had taken the pneumonia vaccines?
