I keep hearing I should get a flu shot to help prevent bird flu — but I thought flu shots only prevented illness from the particular strains the shot was designed for. Does getting a traditional flu shot do anything to prevent bird flu transmission?

Unrelated to answering the question, but I’ve found the safest tag on Lemmy is to use the @username@instance formula. Similarly the safest way to link a community is the !community@instance formula. The others (shorter) might work depending on your interface, but these seem to always work.
