- kube-system 6y agoI initially did not think it was the flu, because I get the flu shot every year (but yes, I know there are multiple strains which it might not protect from)
- pstrateman 6y agoMy understanding is that the flu shot for 2019-2020 wasn't as effective as in other years (which even then is only 40-60%).

And when combined with yesterday's eradication of covid, things look rather brighter than seemed possible. https://www.psnz.org.nz/Story?Action=View&Story_id=110 https://www.psnz.org.nz/Story?Action=View&Story_id=110 https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/covid-19/418524/prime-minister-jacinda-ardern-reveals-move-to-level-1-from-midnight https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/covid-19/418524/prime-minister-ja...
