After controlling for demographic variables such as ethnicity, race, gender, age, and underlying medical conditions, only 4% of flu vaccine recipients tested positive for Covid-19
a 24% reduction in the odds of testing positive for coronavirus
plausible that there could be a direct biological effect of the flu vaccine on the immune system relevant for the fight against the SARS-CoV-2 virus
Similar results have been borne out in previous studies from around the world

First, you can’t simultaneously claim to believe that flu vaccine was effective against Covid-19 AND that the pandemic was “simulated” (meaning not real). Either the pandemic is real, in which case getting the flu vaccine can be correlated with a reduced chance of contracting Covid-19 OR the pandemic is fake, in which case the research article you are promoting makes no sense, since there would be no Covid-19 infection for the flu vaccine to be effective against.

Your OP is false. The article does NOT say that flu vaccine is effective against Covid-19; it says people who got the flu vaccine last year were less likely to test positive for Covid-19. ... You made that part up.
