The MoPH has tweeted that it is safe to get the COVID-19 vaccine and the Influenza (Flu) vaccine at the same time.

The World Health Organisation has urged people across the globe to get flu vaccinations this year, particularly those who are most vulnerable to severe symptoms, such as those over 50 or with chronic conditions. Clinical studies have shown it is safe and effective for people to have both the flu and COVID-19 vaccine at the same time. You can safely receive your COVID-19 booster dose and the annual influenza vaccine at the same appointment.
