Take the poll...

I personally have never got one and won't! PERIOD! I think they are crap! I know too many people that get them and get sick. Some really sick! Like uke:

The doctors hand this off as a coincedence or some crap. But I'm not buying it! Too many people had it happen...

Screw that I'll take my chances...

What do you guys think?

Also here's a few links discussing it in many different ways...if you're up for some :readng:

Why I never Risk getting The Flu Shot Cause I'm scared I'll Catch the bird flu

:iagree: Theres thousands of different strains of flu and they only give you a shot for the three strains that they predict are going to be a problem. Plus Im 28 and never had the flu, ever so why should I.

I remember last year they put out the flu shot and the strain that was infecting people wasn't in it! :damn:

 

[jeeps84]

I got the shot once.
I was sick for two weeks because of the shot. :cursin:
That was 5 or 6 years ago and haven't had another. I haven't been near as sick with out it as I was from taking it.
That was either one he!! of a shot or I dont really need it. :scratch:

My wife gets it every year but, she is a Nurse.

Jeeps that is the story I hear ALL the time! Screw that!

 

[ShanMan14]

The last time I had a flu shot, about 4 years ago, I got the flu really bad. Since that time I've been sick, but not nearly as bad.

No shot for me.

Another one...

I always figure I'll just take my chances with the flu vs scheduling it by getting a flu shot. My POV!

I think about it every year but never found one and probably never will cause I'm too lazy. My highschool girlfriend's moim was a school nurse and swore that vitamin C, exercise and plenty of sleep were the best to keep the flu away. It has worked pretty good so far :dthumb:
