Any idea whether a COVID-19 vaccine can be added to the annual flu shot cocktail or are we going to be asking folks to get vaccinated twice each year? If 2 vaccines, can they be given at the same time or would we need to space them out for a period?

Probably too soon to know for certain but could add to the challenges of attaining and maintaining herd immunity.

There are multiple COVID vaccines in play, and they use different technologies. Assuming you have a choice, it would depend on which of those you're administering. But yes, it is certainly possible. There already exist combination vaccines like MMR, DPT, etc
