I used to get one every year but since the Covid Plandemic, I absolutely do not trust what might be in those shots. We never got the Covid vaccine and never will and I’ll never get another flu shot.


Trail cameras and fresh snow have broke a lot of trapper’s hearts.

I'm sorry your wife had to go through that...
I still have never gotten a flu shot, and will never get a covid jab....have nothing against the old vaccines most of us had though...

Drug store asks every time I get meds if I want a flu shot, I decline and they never say a word.....If the Flu ends up killing me, it is what it is...no one gets out of here alive anyway...

Flu shot is about 50% effective at best, I'll pass.

I ran the numbers on efficacy of the flu shots a few years ago. I want to say it was from 04-05 to 17-18 I think. It was direct information from the CDC website.

I added all the numbers together and divided that number by the number of seasons. I came up with a 38% efficacy rate.

If it is only 38% effective I will pass. If you can't even give me flip of a coin, I am not taking it.

After hearing what GBS does to people and watching my neighbor go through it, now I know I will not get the flu shot. GBS is no joke.


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

Trump got a Covid booster and flu shot this fall. If it’s so risky, why did his medical team recommend both of them? I got both also.

Dose Trump determine every aspect of your life? .

Do what you think is right for you. Do the research base the design on actual info not what som else says or does.

My .02 it hot a low chance of being effective, it has more risk than let on. Easy to find info on both. The flu is a few days of feeling bad and u done get sick but maybe once a decade
so for me it offers mor risk than reward.

Maybe you are in a different situation. Immune compromised, scared of geting sick have a need to fit in or be told wahr to do becuse someone else knows best who knows .
Decide for yourself.

And you only Know that its reported Teup did x y z. You have no clue if its accurate.

From some clinical studies from my younger years in pre med it was in the mid to late 70's. I was taught 27 > 32 % was the efficacy for flu vaccines at that time. Also was stated that the data is typically massaged by Pharma so those numbers can be factored in as being less efficacy than the reported data results.

Too bad Mark June isn't still contributing as he worked for Pfizer a number of years. He could verify what I was taught. However he may be under a contract provision disallowing him to report such sensitive data detrimental to his career at that time.

From reading many posts on Tman, it appears Trump is never wrong.

So many talented folks here on this site….lots of knowledgeable virologists chiming in on this thread.

I don’t ever get a flu shot,,, even though I do catch it,,, I, and everyone else in my household who catches it, recover from it in a timely manner.

It varies significantly by age. If you are under 50, like I am, only 1.9 people out of 100k died from the flu last year. If you are over 65, that number increases to 32.1 per 100k, which still seems a rather small number, but much higher than for those that are younger. Source.
