re: #203 Sionainn, Fierce Mother
Isn’t that the flu strain that freaked everyone out years back and everyone was afraid to get vaccinated because…reasons? If so, if I got vaccinated back then, would that still work now?
CDC recommends the vaccine every year.
This year seasonal flu appears to be three strains including H1N1:
Vaccine viruses included in the 2018-19 U.S. trivalent influenza vaccines will be an A/Michigan/45/2015 (H1N1)pdm09-like virus, an A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016 (H3N2)-like virus, and a B/Colorado/06/2017-like virus (Victoria lineage). Quadrivalent influenza vaccines will contain these three viruses and an additional influenza B vaccine virus, a B/Phuket/3073/2013-like virus (Yamagata lineage).

Edited strains, as only one is H1N1
