I am a paramedic. I take the flu shot because it's required by my employer. I'm rarely sick so I'm not sure if it does any good but it doesn't affect me so I just take it. I refused the Covid shot and will never take it. I saw too many random deaths in people 10-14 days after they had the booster. I wasn't going to take the Covid shot no matter what after seeing that. I felt that there was not enough research being done. Then I thought there was too much lying being done to convince people to take the shot. All my coworkers that were big on taking the shots were the ones that got Covid.

Someone up above commented on keeping a 6 foot distance. Fauci testified to Congress that he pulled that number out of his nether region. So much for the science of it all.

Trump is a bit of a germophobe.

Because he chose to? I still think it's stupid no matter who you are. The flu shot doesn't even give 50% efficacy. The covid jab is always sucking hind teet.

My guess is PRESIDENT TRUMP doesn't want to look bad since he endorsed the jab under false pretenses from the head of the lollipop guild.


How many lies will people believe before they realize their own idiocy?

No jabs here now or before. Two acquaintences had and still dealing with consequences from their initial jabs from years ago. Dr. said they likely will never get better.

FWIW, I was in the Marines for 25 years and was required to get the flu shot every single one of those years. I never got the flu in those 25 years and never had an adverse experience. I never got any COVID shots because there was too much controversy over them and they didn’t prevent the virus. I feel like those shots were both rushed out of necessity but also are a huge money maker for the 3 or 4 major manufacturers. But as stated above, I’d always recommend listening to a doctor as his/her advice will be based on factors such as risk, history, age, health, etc.

I had just the first COVID shot, no boosters
No flu shots ever, have had the flu a few times in my life
Never had COVID I knew of, but never took a test either.
If I get sick I don't hang around people anyway.
I'm still kicking, just not as high

Ingot JEV, all the Hepatitis, Anthrax, small pox, and probably a bunch more I’m not thinking of.

Never touch anything such as door knobs when out in the public. I use my shirt sleeve. I use the handy wipes on the grocery carts. Handling money is a different story as it is so filthy.

I dont know what Ingot JEV is. There was no hepatitis vaccine. Got small pox and polio vaccine as a kid. No clue what was in the shots they gave us.

Im not anti vax. Dont get the flu. Covid made me sick for awhile. I was not going to get a shot being called a vaccine when it was not. Weakened or dead bacteria or virus is one thing. An experimental RNA change, no. I never bought into the danger of covid as the homeless did not die off in large numbers.

When it comes to the covid shot I trusted natural immunity over mRNA technology. With flu it is so hit and miss I just don't bother.

Neither did the Amish, none of whom got the jabs.

The entire thing was a nationally hyped scam. From the hospital ships waiting in big-city harbors to treat the expected overflow of dying patients to the reefer trucks brought in to receive the avalanche of corpses.


Eh...wot?

It was so important to get the shot that the democrats threatened your career and life to scare you into accepting the shots. Meanwhile, Joe Dementia opened the border and allowed 20 million illegals to waltz right in without taking a shot. To add insult to injury, He flew them all over the country to spread them around while American citizens couldn't get on a plane if they weren't vaccinated.

My wife used to get a flu shot every year and she would get the flu almost every year. Doc told her it was probably a different strain of the flu she had gotten. I told her try not getting the flu shot and see if you get the flu. So, she did stop the flu shots and hasn't had the flu since. That was 4 years ago.


My wife says my housekeeping style is best described as, "There appears to have been a struggle."

I'm 48.

I got the first vid shot and first booster so I could keep going to work. Stopped with those as soon as work allowed.

Never had a flu shot. My Dr asks every year and doesn't bat and eye when I say no.

If I live to be 70+, maybe then I'll do flu shots. Seen the flu kill a lot of people that are older and/or in bad health.

I understand enough about the COVID shot that I know I will never get it. And I understand why some people might want to get it, and respect their decisions but as for myself, I think I know enough to know I don't want it.
