will work for shoes: Flu Shot, Shmu Shot

Monday, March 30, 2009

This is the first year in eight years that I've gotten the flu shot.

This is the first year in eight years that I've gotten sick this often.

Lori Whitwam said...: Vaccines are... um... evil? I know I stopped vaccinating the dogs YEARS ago, and our clinic discourages all but the most basic ones. All those artificial jolts to an immune system just f**ks it up. Better to strengthen your natural immunity and take your chances. Maybe you won't get the flu after the shot, but you'll sure as heck get everything else!; March 30, 2009 at 8:01 PM

Muffy Willowbrook said...: that's exactly why I never get those flu shots! Without fail, I get the flu when I've had those shots.

There's something funky about them...

The Sorority said...: I have never got the flu shot and probably never will - hate needles and since I have a healthy immune system, am OK. It is just a big guessing game of which flu viruses they think are going to be 'big' this year.

Besides, I could do with the time off work to catch up on daytime TV. :); April 1, 2009 at 1:04 PM
