Health Officials Brace for Flu, Covid and R.S.V. 'Tripledemic'

Americans are being encouraged to get vaccinations against the flu, Covid-19, and respiratory syncytial virus this fall.
Vaccination rates for the flu and Covid boosters are currently low, leaving the population vulnerable.
Two new R.S.V. vaccines for older adults have been recommended to reduce hospitalizations and deaths.
There are uncertainties about safely administering all three vaccines, who will benefit most, and potential side effects.
The R.S.V. vaccines are very effective at preventing serious lung infections in older people but some worry about giving them together.
