As in, 40% of people who got the shot, also got the flu? Sounds shitty. Which strands are included in the annual shots? The ones most people got the previous year(s)? How many flu strands are there in a flu shot?


Even if you get the flu, the vaccine makes it less severe. That being said, I didn't get the shot. I have a severe needle phobia.

The shot actually doesn't hurt

Tetanus....that fricker hurts
Menactra(one for meningitis)....HURTS

Flushot.....didn't even feel it

And I had no soreness or fever or an symptoms after getting it. I've had minor aches in previous years but the last 2 none whatsoever.

Is a person who didn't get the shot or the flu considered in any statistics?
