If given the choice, you will not experience more immunisation side effects if you decide to get a covid-19 vaccine at the same time as a flu shot.
Three hundred people were randomised to receive either vaccine plus a placebo injection or to have both together. The placebo or real vaccine was then given two weeks later. (That was very sporting of the participants!)
Adverse reactions were reported by a quarter of participants but were not more likely when vaccines were administered together or separated by two weeks.
My comment: In my health board area, the vaccines are offered together, probably to improve uptake. I was able to have them both in the same, non- dominant arm. I was given the option of different arms.

Hello from England.
The question should be not so much about side effects but any benefits. I have known since the 1980’s that the ‘flu shots made people ill so what was the point. Even my wife had one in 1989 and was promptly ill for 3 days.
So in 2020 when they rebranded the ‘flu as COVID 19 and the ‘flu almost disappeared from the statistics to be replaced by COVID 19 I was not going to take either of them.
Many people have yet to work out the scam which only benefits the pharma industry and those who profit from it.
