Flu has been going around. For those who got the vaccine, has it been protective thus far? In other words, did they predict the most virulent/prominent strains to include in the vaccine this year?

Enjoy your implanted microchip. I hear the 5G reception is great.

My doctor told me that it was the most effective they have had in many years so far.

She could have been lying her arse off to get me to take it, though.

Did the covid vaccine cause people to stop taking the regular flu vaccine now?

My wife gets it every year and I never get it. We either both get sick or neither of us are sick. Idk why she insists on getting it.

Flu vaccine is a scam just like the covid vaccine.

Tainting your blood with either

I haven't gotten the shot, and I don't have the flu, so my immune system must be working.

Just like last year, the year before, and the year before that ...

It’s an OT conundrum for healthcare providers…get the flu shot, or wear a mask for the next four months. I’m sure the OT’s answer would be to drag up doctorin’ and nursin’ and get a job at the plants as an operator

Some. Flu vaccine uptake is lower since the roll-out of COVID vaccines.
