Factors that reduce the risk of death from coronary heart disease - Research
Simultaneous influenza and coronavirus infection double the risk of death.
According to a study by British scientists, in January-April this year, the mortality rate of patients diagnosed with "superinfection" in the hospital was 43%, and only 23% of those infected with the coronavirus.
People still think that the flu is like a cold, but it is not. About 30 million people in the UK have been vaccinated against the flu, which has made it easier for health workers to fight the second wave of coronavirus.
The largest vaccination program in the history of the UK will be applied to residents over the age of 50, children under the age of 12, health workers and vulnerable groups.
The British government believes that this will sharply reduce the number of flu cases. Mass vaccination is expected to reduce the number of people who have flu-like symptoms and need to be tested for coronavirus if they become infected.
