I'm 61, never had a flu shot and never had the flu. My wife is 55 and has never had a flu shot, she also has never had the flu. That is about to change. She is a nurse at the state loony bin. The state is forcing her to get a flu shot. The alternative is she will be required to wear a mask until March, the end of flu season. She is not happy about it!
The state encourages the hospital staff to talk the mentally disturbed patents into getting the flu shots, nearly all do. Yet every year the hospital is quarantined because of influenza outbreaks.
Eh...wot?

I get a flu shot every year. I have also had both types of shingle shots and both types of pneumonia shots. I have gotten all the vaccines and shots that they give kids----mumps, measles--all that stuff. I should get a tetanus booster as I haven't had one in quite a few years. I have not had the rabies shots.
Have any of you guys that don't get the flu shot gotten the rabies shots, as a preventative?
My name ain't Keith

Nope, I stay healthy in part by avoiding doctor's offices and hospitals. Do you have any idea the amount of germs in those places?

My has a friend whose friend got a flu shot and it paralyzed him
I’ll take my chances with the flu
It’s also a gamble as to which strain of shot they give and which one is passed around not to mention they created all the different strands with FLU SHOTS

I worked with a guy in his forties that had bad arthritis,hands all knotted up, stiff and painful. He claimed it was caused by the swine flu shot. He died in his fifties. I don't get flu shots.

From what I understand they missed on this years vaccine and it dosen't not cover the strain anyway With the worst season in Australian this last season they know what the combinations are for this year. A cousin got H1N1 last year and 3 months in the hosp he is just able to walk a block now 10 months later...and we have Medicare to cover it. little ouch in the arm ah so sorry.

Lugnut, by them forcing her to wear a mask they are violating HIPPA. I know some nurses and drs (friends) here pulled the HIPPA card against HR and there wasn't an issue. The reason it's a violation is the company/ state is forcing the employee to display their health info openly (violates PHI). I suggest your wife talk to HR.

I see no sense in injecting myself with something that likely will not occur. Statistics show what is injected is less than 50% correct for the flu strain that does appear this year. Vaccines are made the year prior to whatever strain develops. Then, statistically, I only have less than a 10% chance of getting the flu. If I do get the flu and die - I will count it a blessing to spend eternity with my Lord. God gives us wisdom and understanding if we seek it. For me and my house - I see no need for the flu shot. For the most part we are healthy and have good immune systems. You have the best post on trapper man of the week. I mean this sincerely.

Everyone who gets the flu shot around here gets a badcase of the flu within a couple days.
