    Yes. Unfortunately the optimal timing is different from flu so you should probably go twice rather than get both at once

      Do you have a source on that? I asked about this recently when I got mine and was told there was no issue with getting both at once

        Yes, there is no issue getting both at once, and it’s probably useless to try to time each for peak effectiveness. Nevertheless, I believe peak effectiveness for flu shot is about a month earlier than peak effectiveness for COViD

      I’m happy to be a bit suboptimal and get vaccinated when convenient. I got my flu shot a week before school came back in session and my COVID shot a week later, because that’s when the new booster came out where I am. I’d have been happy to get them at the same time because better something suboptimal than nothing because you forgot or got busy.
