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 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...

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?

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.

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. www.jamesonsultrablend.com www.wildlifepestcontrolservices.com

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. Proudly banned from the NTA.

Gillian Barre Syndrome is a serious illness , usually caused by the flu shot. If left untreated it can be fatal. Like others have stated, you need to make up your own mind whether or not to receive the shot. But you need to know the risks, and funny we were never told about GBS before getting the shot, but when I took my wife to the ER, the 1st thing they asked, was. Did you recently get the flu shot ?

My arm is a little sore. He tried to talk me into the shingles vaccine, he said I would feel like a truck ran me over for a few days. I said pass.
