Moneyline on the flu shot
My wife got a flu shot a couple weeks ago. She was sick for two days. I didn't think much of it because she gets sick a lot anyway.
My company gave free shots last week, I had mine Wednesday. Now I'm sick. Wife's sister is a doc, she says everybody she knows who got this year's shot has gotten sick from it. So it's your call. Do you skip the shot, and maybe you'll get sick for a week later on, or get one, and definitely be sick for two days right now? |

Wife and two kids have gotten the shot so far. No reaction. I'll get mine when they restock.

Re: Moneyline on the flu shot
Inductive reasoning is flawed reasoning (aka sample size too small). My work gave out the flu shot for free and id say 75% of 100 people got it. Not one of my co-workers that i know of has gotten sick because of the flu shot. The flu is a bitch... i got it bad last year and was home sick for a week. Get the shot or else dont complain when your confined to your bed [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Moneyline on the flu shot

Re: Moneyline on the flu shot
I thought the same thing until last year... and I couldnt have been more wrong. It pains me just to think about the 'dry' cough i had and the muscle aches. The 103+ fever was actually one of the less annoying effects of the flu.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't believe anyone could be 'immune to the flu', because the virus mutates so often and quickly. You probably have a strong immune system. I got the shot to calm wifey's nerves about our toddler catching it from one of us. Now I'm pissed off [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] |
