Summary
More:Data, data and more data will make a coronavirus vaccine safe, USA TODAY's vaccine panel saysEach year, researchers update the flu shot in order to protect those who receive it from strains of the influenza virus. Changes for the 2020-2021 flu vaccine include modified components to combat some updated flu strains, but there are no additions to the shot listed to combat coronaviruses, according to the CDC's website.A Reuters fact-check that reviewed the contents of flu vaccines approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found none contained SARS-CoV-2 or other coronaviruses.The FDA tests and approves all influenza vaccines, according to the CDC, meaning no child or adult would be offered an "untested" flu shot by a doctor.
