The US withdrawal from WHO could impact the flu shot.
Flu samples sent to CDC from around the world are down 60% this year, as of July.
"When those viruses are not coming in, we don't know what to put in the vaccine, and you're going to have less effective vaccines."

Why next year's flu shot might not be as good as it should be
America's withdrawal from the World Health Organization is affecting the ability of U.S. scientists to track flu and other pathogens. That could be a blow to the development of the 2025 flu vaccine.

The "Alt CDC" account, with 154 THOUSAND followers on this site, was unaware that Democrats in general, and Leader Jeffries in particular, hold regular press conferences and speak to the public pretty much constantly.
Consider what else "Alt CDC" might mislead you about before you follow them.

CDC Vaccine Panel Presentation Distorts Research on Safety of mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines - FactCheck.org
A presentation by scientists on a work group for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s vaccine advisory panel highlighted various alleged “safety uncertainties” of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, including those about cancer and changes to the immune system. Scientists, however, told us that many of the cited studies are either misconstrued or of poor quality.
