Have you taken your flu shot?

[camellia0]

I have not, but I hear people are getting their flu shots.

[dwiley11]

I haven't been sick in 4 years.  4 years ago I got a flu shot.  get it!

[hkckk5]

Every year my doctor ask if I want the flu shot. Every year I say no. She should quit asking because I am not going to take the shot.

[amyDAST]

No I never get a flu shot and have never been sick more then a runny nose during the cold weather.

[davissy]

I got mine back in September.  In my experience, flu shots doesn't protect me 100% from getting the flu.  It does help in making the symptoms less severe and help me recover faster though.   

[renee10]

I have gotten mine.

[tantricia44]

Haven't taken a flu shot since I was legally able to say no to the doctor. & haven't been sick since I said no to flu shots! Knock on wood, I don't want to be jinxed! 

[gtdoss]

I haven't had a flu shot in more than 10 years. My husband gets them every year. I get my kids flu shots every year. But I guess I'm so adverse to injections that I conveniently "forget" about getting myself a flu shot.

I don't have a choice.  My doctor makes me take it (though she ain't the one paying the bill) because I have bad allergies and according to her, it will prevent my allergy attacks from turning into pneumonia. 

[yikes77]

Not yet but I plan to.  Not sure if I will get it done at the civic center or my work place.

[bshee58]

No and will not.

[adriarobi]

Lots of folks get the flu from the flu.  I was one of them. Horrible case of it.

I don't catch the flu, but had to take it for a job long ago, I believe.

I don't get these shots any more, as I always have a reaction....like folks who get the shingles vaccination. Many of them get shingles after they get the shot. Have a good friend who did.

Just a money making scheme by big pharm companies.

 

[rghvac69]

Nope, I haven't taken the flu shot this year. I take Vitamin C and D supplements and keep my hands washed. It seems to help more than a shot.

[pectacon]

I never get the flu shot. Last time I did, I felt so lousy I might as well have just gotten the flu. Since I don't live with anyone with a weak immune system I figure I will take my chances.

[vickysue]

Yes Hubby I I get one every year. I have a week immune  system and so does he. He works  at the schools  as a sub. teacher and when he is not working he is down helping me  at the charity, food and clothing bank. So we are around a lot of people who may or may not have the flu. Why take a chance.
