So people who get them are idiots or ignorant?

isn't the flu shot free or basically nothing? I don't ever remember thinking about cost as a factor in a flu shot. Wonder what the insurance co. gets paid - so I guess your argument still applies.

She may have felt some pressure from her boss to get back to work ASAP. She may have been doing some weird homeopathic treatment? People do all kind of silly shite. Even intelligent people will do stuff contrary to medical advice, because their girlfriend read something on pintrest. It's fricked up, but it happens all the time.

Someone in my Facebook mom group recently threw away the antibiotics given for her sons ear infection and instead did garlic drops in his ears. People are weird.

Here is where you show what an idiot you are.

Flu shot isn't a cure for the flu. It helps PREVENT the flu.

Insurance covers the flu shot. But even if you don't have insurance...there are many ways you can get the flu shot for free. Many employers offer it for free. My hospital just did a big health fair yesterday, at one of our major clinics open to the public, where they offered the flu shot to anyone who visited the booth for free.

not idiots, and not ignorant in the offensive way that you want that word to come off as. but yes, 99.99999% of all people who get flu shots/vaccines have and never will read even a paragraph of thoughts pertaining to their effectiveness/harmfulness/or safeness.

so yes, i wish you hadn't used the word "ignorant" but instead used the word uninformed or unread

does the host of the bachelorette ever start the show by telling you that this will be the "least dramatic season" in years?

Oh hush. It takes 5 minutes out of your day to get the shot. I'm not going to look into and Google the weirdo reasons you people (yes, I said you people) are against a simple vaccination.

You could have a proven cure for cancer and idiots like him will refuse it saying "nah I'm healthy enough to fight off cancer on my own".

I love how people are arguing with an infection control nurse, lmao

That’s like me arguing with a welder over a certain bead.

I argue with people at work that "got the flu from the flu shot" all of the time. It's required where I work

I saw an article where it stated her husband found her unresponsive in the bathroom after she had returned home from a jog. That probably explains what happened to her. For the life of me, I don't know why you go exercise while your body is battling something like the flu.
