    And two of the three strains (so I hear) mutated before they even got the shots to the public, so..

    Oh, and the 'bathroom' flu isn't covered, as it isn't a flu.

    uh, on topic, that sucks. Stay in bed, drink all kinds of stuff, *insert advice I'm sure you've heard a million times here*.
    Speedy recovery.

    never had a flu shot never go the flu...

    screw the flu...
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I don't do flu shots... I hear that this years vaccine is especially ineffective.

    They never work. I've never had one and never gotten the flu (since I can remember.. I had it as a youngin'). Meanwhile every single person that I know gets the shot and the flu.

    Yeah, a flu shot will only help you if you come in contact with that particular strain of the flu that the vaccine is built around. The vaccine basically teaches your immune system how to fight off that particular microbe, but that does you know good if you get hit by a different virus.

    I'm going to have to argue this. I work with the general public so I normally get the flu atleast once a winter, and a cold a few times.. This was the first year I had the shot and I haven't had so much as a sniffle.. unless its just a coincidence.

    I probably had the flu when I was young, but can't remember to say one way or another.
    I know as much as I don't remember getting the flu, I don't remember getting a flu shot, either, so it's been a while for both!
