While Canadians raced to get vaccinated against COVID-19 early in the pandemic, only 15 per cent of the population had their updated shot this fall. But the virus is still spreading.

I wonder how that compares to flu shots.

We got both ours done at once

I got a covid shot but didn't bother with flu. My very uneducated point of view was that flu doesnโ€™t have any serious long term effects and I had heard a few people say the vaccine took them out for a few days, so why bother? As I say though, uneducated on it, anyone think I should?

You absolutely should. Our family we all experienced some negative effect from the COVID shot (mostly sore arms), not from the flu shot.
