New Delhi: Flu disease had slowed down during the crisis period of the Corona epidemic. But now scientists have warned that the flu could be very heavy in winter this year. Now there have been two new studies claiming that the flu may spread rapidly this year in the winter and autumn season. A study claims that 1 to 4 million people worldwide may be admitted to hospitals due to flu during the 2021-22 flu season.

The results of this study have been printed on the pre-print database medrXiv. However, the study has not yet been peer-reviewed. But the study emphasizes that the need for a flu vaccine may be high this year. Both studies have clearly revealed that flu cases can be reduced if 20 to 40 percent of the flu vaccine is managed. Dr. Mark Roberts, director of the Public Health Dynamics Laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health and lead author of both studies, says that giving more and more people a flu vaccine can prevent a major problem. Because if someone has the flu, it won't take long for him to get hit by a corona. It can prove extremely deadly.

Dr Mark said that last year there were very few flu cases all over the world because people were suffering from corona. This was due to social distancing, closure of schools, wearing masks, and lack of travel. In the 2020-21 flu season, 4 out of 1 00,000 people were admitted to hospital due to flu in the Us. Whereas on normal days the rate is 70 in 1 lakh. At the same time, flu deaths were reduced by 95 percent.
