Flu Shots
So just curious if anyone will be getting either one of these this year. I have never gotten a shot before, and dont plan on it. I think if people just take normal precaution, they wont get sick. What are your thoughts on it?

No for me on both. My doc always tries to pull it on me, and his clinics are always on Fridays. Do I want to go through a 12 hour work day feeling like ass.......................................HELLZ NO!

The theory behind them is not bad but who can tell if they have the right amount of the cells dead? Everyone i know who has got them felt like crap. No thanks dont feel like getting sick to not get sick.

Talking with a pediatric nurse "They've (manufacturer's of the flu shots) only ever gotten it right once"
Flu shots have been available for decades...not very good getting it right only once. Flu shots are the best guess at what it might be.
Hundred's of thousands of people have been affected/infected worldwide by the Swine flu with a little over 3000 deaths associated with it. Where'as the common cold kills 30,000 + every year, according to the Fox News Doctor on Sunday's.
I won't be getting either the flu or swine flu shots.

No, but I probably should be. I'm on some pretty strong immuno-suppressants.
