Just take a high dose of vitamin C two weeks before the shot and two weeks after the shot.

Yes. If mind control was the goal, well I guess I'm immune to what they're selling.

Nope

Never had a flu shot

Never had the flu

Until I get the flu, I won’t consider it.

I got my first ever flu shot last year. I was diagnosed with Crohn's and before starting on Humira I had to get a flu and pneumonia shot.

I don’t know if it was because I was weak from the Crohn’s but I felt terrible for a couple of days. I am not looking forward to getting it this year.

Solid logic

Do you have kids?


80% of the 172 kids that died from the flu last flu season in the U.S....were not vaccinated with the flu shot.


Be smart, protect your kids...and get a flu shot. And have them get one as well.

I can’t believe that so many people here are so medically ignorant to the efficacy of flu shots.

First of all, you have a greater chance of developing Guillain Barre after catching the actual flu than after the vaccine. Also, the GBS worry is overblown. Sure, it can happen, but it is only 1/100000 more than the average group of people who contract GBS without a vaccine. Any virus or even food poisoning can trigger GBS.

Secondly, of course the vaccine isn’t 100% effective, but the tards that actually claim the vaccine causes them to catch the flu or gives them the flu are mind-numbingly dumb.

If everyone got the vaccine, the flu cases would plummet.

Anyone that says "I got the flu shot and it gave me the flu"...I automatically know they have a low IQ. You can't have an ounce of intelligence to actually believe that.

While all of that is true, you also don’t have to be a doctor to know that. It’s common sense or at least it should be

My father got polio as a kid before the vaccine was available. He had to relearn how to walk as a child. It disabled him to a certain extent for the rest of his life.



ETA: So yeah....people that don't vaccinate piss me off at dismissing something that is life saving.
