Did you get a flu shot this year?

It's not to late plenty places to get one walgreens or cvs still advertising. It only takes two weeks to kick in flu season isn't over.

Sorry for your loss.

People don’t realize how serious the flu really is, as many stomach bugs are self diagnosed as the flu. Thousands of people die each year from this.

Your post. Reminded me of long times ago on ships returning to the U.S. of a long line of guys on “bore-punch” day in the passageway outside of medical. NSU for non specific urethratitus or some crap put in Med record.

Yep. I think that's where a lot of "I got the shot and then got the flu" stuff comes from. People don't actually have a good idea of what the flu is without a doctor's diagnosis.

I don't get the shot religiously every year, but I really should. Even people who aren't worried about dealing with it should consider other people you might infect with it and might have a tougher time.

I went for years not getting the flu and even rarely getting colds. But when I hit my late 40s, that changed. I was resistant to getting the shot for some reason but after last year, f that. Enough was enough. I know it isn't 100% but any protection is worth it to me now. It takes like 5 minutes at the pharmacy and didn't cost me anything so it seems like a no brainer to me.

Not since I left the Air Force in 92. I haven't had anything worse than a cold in over 10 years, even when some really nasty bugs were going around.

I wash my hands as often as I can and keep hand sanitizer with me for when I can't wash. I also try to avoid touching things that a lot of people touch. Seems to work well for me.

Every year. It's literally free. I don't understand why people decline free healthcare.

What's the downside of getting the vaccine? It's free for many and cheap for everyone else. Is it just the inconvenience?

When I had to get it, it never failed that I would get sick within a week of getting the shot. In the nearly 30 years since my last shot, I've gotten the flu maybe 3 times and a cold on average every other year. My immune system is strong and I trust it more than a shot that I have no idea what's in it
