As the day turns colder, there is growing concern about the “demic twin” in which the flu and Corona 19 are simultaneously prevalent. In fact, cases of simultaneous infection with both viruses have been reported. In Korea, three people were confirmed to be infected simultaneously in February. Reporter Yeojin Lee reports. It was confirmed that there were 3 people in Korea who had Corona 19 and flu. In late February, before the end of the influenza epidemic, it was the areas of Daegu and Gyeongbuk where Corona 19 was epidemic. Several cases of simultaneous infection of this type have been reported both in Korea and abroad. In the United States, one of 116 tests, 0.9%, in China 2.7%, and in Turkey, about 2%, tested positive for both viruses. According to a research team from the UK Department of Public Health, the mortality rate of 58 patients infected with the two viruses at the same time was 6 times that of healthy people and 2.3 times that of those with COVID-19 alone. The flu advisory was issued on November 16, 2018, and November 15 of last year. Since it takes about two weeks for antibodies to form after vaccination, you should receive the vaccine no later than early November. Quarantine authorities said earlier this year that the flu warning was lifted early thanks to social distancing and public sanitation.
