Influenza (Flu) and COVID-19 are both contagious respiratory illnesses, but they are caused by different viruses.

Because some of the symptoms of flu and COVID-19 are similar, it may be hard to tell the difference between them based on symptoms alone, and testing may be needed to help confirm a diagnosis, which creates anxiety for you and your family.

While we still do not have a vaccine to protect us from acquiring the Corona Virus, WE DO have a vaccine that protects us against the Influenza (Flu) virus.
