While we’re all focused so much these days on the novel coronavirus, the flu hasn’t gone away. It’s still very much a threat. In a recent discussion, Dr. Albert Ko of the Yale School of Public Health explained why none of us should fear the flu shot, and he emphasized that controlling the flu also will help control COVID-19.

Hear the interview below:

John Henry Smith is Connecticut Public’s host of All Things Considered, its flagship afternoon news program. He's proud to be a part of the team that won a regional Emmy Award for The Vote: A Connecticut Conversation. In his 21st year as a professional broadcaster, he’s covered both news and sports.
