I find it somewhat ironic that these jabs are being given in hospitals and doctors' surgeries etc.
Visiting any of those places, no matter what precautions are taken, are likely to be the most potentially dangerous outings from the health point of view a lot of 75+ years old people have made during the last 9 months. Because they have been in isolation so long, not mixing with other people, some may even have less natural immunity to such secondary infections.
It is a cliche but that's because it is true that such places are the 'best' sources to get whatever diseases are currently doing the rounds. My own experiences with hospitals and older relatives suggest that too.
