OK, I'm in New Zealand and covid cases are just starting to take off. I'm 58 and have had T1 for 50 years, no obvious complications.
We (husband and self) are self isolating for the long haul.
So, do I get a flu shot (supposedly available next week.) Normally I would but I'm thinking that if I'm avoiding covis-19 I'll also avoid normal flu.... Don't desperately want to sit in the surgery while I await my shot, though numbers in my area are still low.
Any thoughts?
