EVERY time I've hada flu vaccination, I've hada bad flu within one week. Every time I tell that to a doctor, they tell me it's impossible the vaccination caused it.
I just don’t get flu like those all around me, except those two times after the flu shots; actually I hardly ever get sick at all. The shots are not for me. Doc says I have reached the age- I think he means I’m OLD- when it is doubly important to get the shot. I think he is trying to kill me off prematurely.
Anyway, I don’t intend to deliberately give myself a nasty case of flu every year. My wife gets the shots and they seem to have no effect at all. She always gets whatever is going around. Being a schoolteacher doesn’t help.
