H1N1 Flu shots

I won't get it.

Every time I've gotten the regular flu shot I got the flu multiple times in a season.

If Darwin doesn't kill you science will.

Just got the regular flu nasal mist yesterday. Our doctor recommends it and stated they haven't had any reported issues yet, so we'll see.

Never had a flu vaccination before as I absolutely hate needles.

Wife just got the flu, not the swine flu just the regular one. I think I'll work late tonight.

I watch Channel 19 news every morning and yesterday they had a doctor on there in regards to this exact question.

What did she say?

Basically she noted there is no reason to be afraid of the flu shot, but also there is NO reason to think that you HAVE TO get the shot if you get the flu. She was jabbing on about what it is exactly and all that junk but said that there is no reason to fear it.

If I got the flu would I get the shot? No. Why? Because I see nothing special about the H1N1 shot other than regular flu medicine, etc.

Best medicine...

Never, ever, ever, ever again will I get a dang ol' flu shot!!! The only year I ever got the flu was the year I did the shot, and the shot gave it to me!!!!

I have raised 3 kids, aka little petri dishes, and never got anything, and let me tell you kids bring it all home!! The flu, measles, chicken pox, and my favorite the pink eye! :p

NO WAY, NO FLU SHOT FOR THIS GUY!
