re: Do you get the flu shot?

I’ve seldom seen a thread with a higher concentration of ignorance and selfishness.

Thousands of people die each year, and the economic impact via direct healthcare costs and indirect effects on the economy exceeds $11B per year. Influenza is a fast-evolving virus. A 30%-40% rate of effectiveness DRAMATICALLY reduces transmission in a population. The vaccine is made of dead pieces of virus, so while you might have a mild inflammatory response as your immune system acknowledges it, it’s literally impossible to catch the flu from the vaccine.

And here we have dozens of TPsOS outright bragging about being terrible, stupid people.
