Getting sick does make your immune system stronger. The flu vaccine does the same thing without making you sick.

I suppose there are some of you that believe the polio vaccine cured polio. If so, do some research and see what happened to the spinal meningitis numbers in children the years following the start of mass vaccines. To those to lazy, they skyrocketed. Reason? The virus mutated, got stronger and attacked the CNS. If you think the govt. and their BS articles written by "scientists" bought and paid for, are accurate, I have some waterfront property to sell you, along with a bridge. I know you believe the govt, is always doing whats best for you cause they care so much, right? Getta a clue.
I have numerous articles written by referred journals that show a large number of these so called scientific researchers are "paid" researchers to give them the results they want, not the truth. If you believe they wouldn't do that you are more than naive, your just dumb and probably believe that Obama is in DC looking out for you and your best interests. |

I haven't had anything more than a minor cold in the last 10 years so I don't bother with the flu shot.
I'm not against it, I just haven't felt a need to get one. |

I wish they'd make a vaccination for rotovirus.
Having a kid or two involved in a barf-o-rama every thursday night for a month gets old. How does a 30lb kid barf the volume of a 400lb man who just drank a case of beer and ate at a buffet? |

Washing your hands and using germ-x several times per day this time of year is as likely to keep you healthy as anything else you do.

But if I'm exposed to the flu bug and do not contract the flu (my own immune system fought it off), did I not make my immune system stronger on its own?

I wouldn't say that you made your immune system stronger....it's more like your immune system is already strong enough because it didn't let the flu virus take hold and multiply.

I don't know why, but the years I have gotten flu shots, I get sick more often. It just doesn't work well for me, so I haven't had one in five years. Honestly, I have had a few head colds during that time, but I haven't had the flu once. |

Of course, now that I've made such a big deal about my strong immune system, I expect to come down with a killer cold or flu that will lay me up for days.

No and I rarely get the flu. Maybe the seasonal cold but not full blown influenza. Now I'm cursed.
