After going through the corona epidemic for three years, now there are many questions about the virus in people's minds. The vaccine that was given to prevent corona virus. It is able to protect against H3N2 virus or not. People want to know about this. Find out what doctors say about this.

Does the covid vaccine protect against the H3N2 virus?

According to the information given by the doctors in this regard, the doctor says that this virus i.e. H3N2 and Kovid-19 are completely different from each other. A vaccine for any virus is made based on its nature, and spread. Because the nature and frequency of the Covid-19 and H3N2 viruses are different, the Covid vaccine cannot help protect against the influenza virus. If a vaccine designed for any particular virus works as it should, it will have no benefit against other viruses.

Who is most at risk from this virus?

According to Dr. Kuldeep Grover, the H3N2 virus is more dangerous for children and the elderly. Because children and elderly people have less immunity power. So that this virus can attack them quickly. Apart from this, its effect can be accelerated on people who have asthma, heart disease, diabetes, elderly and weak people. And with this, pregnant women are also at greater risk of this virus. Due to covid, children stayed at home for 2 years and stayed away from overcrowded places. But now the schools have opened and the markets are also crowded. So even because of the common variant, this virus can spread rapidly in children. Currently, this disease is more common in children and the elderly.
