"flu of" is not a correct or commonly used phrase in written English.
It is possible that it could be used in a sentence as part of a larger phrase or idiom, but it would be unusual and potentially confusing for most readers. For example: Correct usage: "He had a severe case of the flu." Possible but unusual usage: "The flu of the past winter was particularly virulent." Please note that this is not a commonly used or idiomatic phrase, and it would be more natural and clear to say something like, "The flu strain that circulated last winter was particularly virulent."
