Only influenza, another single-stranded RNA virus (hence lacking self-repair = rapidly mutating).
When this is all over, the outcome(s) of the COVID vaccine project may well bring down the "annual flu shot" as well.

you are correct sir!
once credibility is lost

I never took those either.
The plan is to modernize the yearly flu shots by using the Novavax method of culturing the virus proteins. The traditional method uses eggs and takes many months. This leads to prediction errors that make the shots less effective. OTOH the updated flu shots are expected to be over 90% effective.
Or at least this is what was told to me by a guy who’s a volunteer in a vaccine study group. He said this is what the doctors who are overseeing the study had said. It’s third hand info so take with a grain of salt but it seems believable.
