A recent advisory from the Washtenaw County Health Department suggested that everyone over the age of six months should receive a flu vaccine this year.

"Widespread flu vaccination will reduce the spread of flu during the COVID-19 pandemic and can prevent or reduce serious illness and related hospitalizations or deaths. Flu vaccination can also reduce the chance of people becoming infected with both flu and COVID-19 at the same time," according to the Health Department news release.
