  • Seasonal flu shots won’t protect you from bird flu.
    I think seasonal flu shots also now contain strains of H1N1 (swine flu), but not this latest bird flu.

    Getting it might still help your odds against bird flu, even if only by lowering your chances of ever catching both at the same time.
    Simultaneous infection isn’t gonna be fun.

    You getting a seasonal flu shot might also help the population in more roundabout way.
    If less people need care for seasonal flu complications, health services will be less overloaded and more available to eventual bird flu patients if a bird flu pandemic did break out.
