The CDC did not estimate flu vaccine effectiveness for the 2020-2021 season due to the low flu virus circulation.but it seems as if this season’s flu shot may be a good match against the predominant strains in circulation, Alexander said.Has COVID-19 replaced influenza as a worrisome virus? An endemic illness is one that is always in circulation, but doesn’t overwhelm hospitals with seriously ill people.
