COVID-19 vs. flu symptoms: As delta variant spreads, keep these CDC pages handy for early signs
Flu season is upon us, and the CDC has a page dedicated to the differences and similarities between the flu and COVID-19.
Fall is here and kids are back in school, which means flu season can’t be far off. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), flu season usually starts around October, and the agency is recommending that people get flu shots by the end of that month. Of course, the season will be even more complicated this year thanks to that other virus. COVID-19 infections are still averaging more than 100,000 a day, according to the data tracker from The New York Times, largely due to the ongoing spread of the delta variant.
