My wife and I both work in large schools (2100 students, and 1100 students), our two oldest kids attend a pretty large elementary (420), and our two youngest each attend a day care AND a seperate preschool three days a week. So, we are exposed to five large and active germ factories. Compound that with the fact that living in SD means lots of time "inside," and not much opportunity for houses and offices to "air out" during the heart of winter....and flu can be a real problem.
Lengthy bouts with the flu are very likely if we don't get shots. Personally, I'd rather work than battle the flu, so we all get shots. If I was a businessman working in the Valley.....I probably wouldn't though.
