Dr. SK Chhabra, HOD- Pulmonary, Primus Hospital, New Delhi says, “COVID-19 and influenza, there is no link between the two as they both are respiratory infections, both spread the same way. Mild COVID and mild influenza practically resemble each other in terms of symptoms except that cold element is more common in influenza, body ache, and headache are also most common in influenza and there is no proof that those who had a brush with COVID-19 are at high risk of contracting influenza as both are independent, separate infections and there is no link between the occurrence of the two.
