    Thankfully, I do not get sick so that's why I depend on that shot. I've got a good constitution and can fight off most anything that comes along, but there is always that one time.............

    I got it for sure. After my bout with COVID-19, I certainly am not in the mood for the flu.

    Or not. Some studies have found that people who have been vaccinated for the flu are more susceptible to the coronavirus.

    Ever wonder what they put in those flu vaccines ? Here is a list of the most likely things they use.

    I have never had a flu shot in my life and I don't plan to start now. (Never had the flu, either, as far as I know.)

    We (my wife and I) had our flu shot 2 days ago..; Neither of us had any reaction at all.. We got the seniors version of the flu shot.. Whatever that means, I don't know..
    I have been taking the flu shot for the past 45 or more years and I never had a reaction or did ever get the flu...

    I guess I am an anti-vaxxer. I have never taken a flu vaccine. I know people who have and still have gotten the flu because flu mutates and the shot you receive today may no longer be effective against the flu that is out there now.
    I don't want to start a fight. I just have my opinion. But this flu has actually low mortality in itself despite all the scary information. In combination with other conditions it is higher. But compare it with previous years flu stats.
    More people die from lots of other causes but they don't frighten us enough. Control is what is sought.
    The following article explains more than one might want to know (long) but I think it is important.
    Please make sure you get enough vitamin D3 and zinc/copper through the winter.

    Well, since many just won't listen to what a professional knows, Dr. Fauci, and the virus just keeps going and going..........we will get the vaccine as soon as it's available.

    I've had the flu before, including a spot of pneumonia on a lung. It wasn't fun and I actually thought I was going to die. Don't like that feeling at all!
