The previous flu shot generally does not provide protection for the new strain.
From what I understand, Covid-19 is not mutating. It is like the measles. Once you had it or got the vaccine, you are immune.

This virus has a lot of the experts confused. And in some cases, as they gain more knowledge about the virus, they come out with new information that sometimes contradicts something that may have said earlier. All we can do is to keep washing our hands, don’t touch our faces and do our part to not spread it. Let’s wait for the experts to figure it out. I say this because domino has some of the worst doomsday type posts that I’ve read regarding this virus. And I can’t believe I’m saying this, but even CNN comes across slightly more optimistic. Fortunately it seems that most of you see dominos posts for what they are. Get your information from trusted and accredited sources. Unfortunately, fear kicks in before logic

Just FYI: Person sitting next to me got it from Columbia University (it's Ivy League, google it if you don't know what it means.).
You just talked about a vaccination for AIDS. I'm really sorry, you have no clue what the hell you are talking about. Go fornicate a waterfowl or something.
