Israel recently detected the first case of ‘florona’, a combined infection of coronavirus and influenza, according to a tweet by Arab News, a Saudi English-language daily newspaper.

The reports stated that the first case was detected in a pregnant woman who was admitted to a hospital for delivery. The woman was not vaccinated against coronavirus.

Florona is a combined infection of coronavirus and flu. It is not a new variant of Covid-19, however, it is a double infection. Till now, there is no proper definition of florona by the World Health Organization (WHO) but it said that “it is possible to catch both diseases at the same time”.

“The most effective way to prevent hospitalization and severe Covid-19 and influenza is vaccination with both vaccines,” WHO said.

1. Damn

[brush]

6. Yeah, just what the fu_k we needed.

[Texaswitchy]

I do not want to leave the little farm now.

[Texaswitchy]

17. You're getting that from your medical records, aren't you?

No way you could spell that on your own.

[LuckyCharms]

18. I spilled some Scrabble tiles on the floor

and they lined up spelling that.

Probably not a good sign.

2. Yay?

I'm gonna laugh to keep from crying if it's all the same to you.

Now idiots will refuse the yearly flu shot.

Because, you know, it has to be a plot of some sort.

[Texaswitchy]

13. A new kind of flu shot.

With some weird stuff mixed in.

21. Mind control nanorobots that science claims will help deliver medicine to people BUT

actually targets conservatives and how they think. We're out to get them by reshaping their minds.

Mind you, nanobots/nanorobots made of DNA are a real thing and they are being developed with the purpose of delivering medicines and treatment directly where they need to be or time-released in such a way to be beneficial. It's part of DNA origami.

Being tested for killing cancer cells as well as a method for delivering medicines to people (time-released).

And I'm sure there will be other uses that are beneficial to people.

All that said - it all sounds enough like science fiction (more like fictioneer when it comes to conspiracy theories) to be the basis for the next right-wing conspiracy theory on vaccines.

[Texaswitchy]

22. Yeah

Science confuses them.

4. I have had two friends college age kids get CV and Flu

at the same time. One was at beginning of of last semester and another just a few weeks ago.

They were both vaxxed and the one a few weeks ago was boosted. I don’t think the first one had flu vax because it was early on the season (late August.) Not sure about the second kid, but iirc, it was the flu virus not covered by this years vax.

They both recovered fairly quickly.

5. I've gotten all 3 shots + flu. I don't fool around with this crap. trump might lose a

lot of his base. I feel no sympathy for those that blatantly ignore it all and then infect others.

[Wounded Bear]

20. Me, too...nt

9. Hasn't this always been possible?

I dunno this seems like a stupid story. Like we need extra fear hype right now. As far as I know you can always catch more than one disease.

[Raftergirl]

10. Yes. This was always possible.

Public Health departments and the CDC have been warning about higher rate of flu infections this year, due to last years low numbers because of masking and other CV safety protocols.

11. I assumed Florona was something to do with Florida and DeathSentence

[Nevilledog]

15. That's Flomoron.
