That is what prevented you from getting ill. In so doing, you built up natural immunity. Since my daughter had adverse reactions to her childhood immunizations, she opted to delay them for her daughter. Now 2, my granddaughter has been exposed weekly to seniors in assisted living, and other children in a daycare setting. All of those children have been vaccinated but are more prone to upper respiratory illnesses. They cough and wheeze, exposing my granddaughter to a wealth of germs. So far, other than an occasional sniffle, she has never been sick. Like you, she has built up a natural defense.
Stay healthy!
My grandmother got sick from it every year. I will not get one.
Thernisol hasn’t been used in decades
The Government claims 40%.News reports were 10% for 2017.
Summary of the 2017-2018 Influenza Season | CDC
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/season/flu-season-2017-2018.htm
The overall vaccine effectiveness (VE) of the 2017-2018 flu vaccine against both influenza A and B viruses is estimated to be 40%. This means the flu vaccine reduced a person’s overall risk of having to seek medical care at a doctor’s office for flu illness by 40%.
This year’s flu vaccine may only be 10% effective, experts ...

Flu is currently widespread in four states, including Georgia, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Massachusetts, the CDC reports. What’s more, this year’s flu shot may not be up to the task.
I am sorry to hear of the suicide. Ther is very sad. Offering a word of prayer for you even years after
Be careful that you don’t sail or the edge of the earth as obviously your self proclaimed truth is dangerous and the ignorant expression of impugning advances in immunology that has saved million is staggering. Given the vast ongoing pandemic of polio and smallpox obviously immunization doesn’t work— oh wait. Never mind.
I beg to differ with you. A couple of years ago a friend of mine mentioned she had gotten a flu shot at a fundraising committee meeting. The next day she didn't show up for the fundraiser.
We were shocked to find she had been transferred to a university hospital with Guillain-Barré Syndrome - all she could move was her toe. She died within days.
My friend was very healthy before the flu shot.
Thanks, 7; it’s good to be back.
Could be coincidence or causation.
So let’s be blunt: some people may have adverse responses to vaccines. But you want Polio back? Measels? Or maybe another Spanish Flu outbreak of the literally killed about a fourth of the population of the planet?
They diseases kill a LOT more people than the vaccines.
Oh wait, because of anti-vaccine nut jobs, Measels is actually making a comeback. Congratulations ya nut jobs. This outbreak will only kill about 0.1 percent of the population: about 700,000 people. Well done!
Got my flu shot the other day, I feel perfectly fi
The flu shot hardly ever works.

Do you have more than an elementary school education, cause you sound like an uneducated fool spouting nonsense about a subject you obviously know nothing about.
The flu kills hundreds of people each year. Back in 1915 it killed millions worldwide. And yet you, some anonymous nobody share your obviously uneducated opinion contrary to every health care agency in the world that vaccines work. They eradicated diseases that plagued the world for
centuries like smallpox, polio, diphtheria, tb,whooping cough, measles, mumps, etc etc etc. A tiny amount of people have an adverse reaction to vaccines. Everyone knows this fact but the tiny risk is far outweighed by the benefit. In fact the more people that refuse vaccines the more it damages herd immunity for the general population and allows the eradication of diseases to reappear. So it is not just a personal decision. It affects everyone.
Lincoln said it is better to remain silent and have people think you a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. He had you in mind.
Do you know anyone who had Guillain-Barré Syndrome? My neighbor did and almost died from it. It’s not like getting a cold.
I don’t think Alex Jones is stupid. I think he caters his information to a certain group of people who want to hear his “news”.

You have what I do - battle-tested immunity.
This response is rare, but very real.
Probably a booster shot of MMR.
The more drugs a child is exposed to, the higher the proportion of serious reactions; drug-to-drug interactions (DDI) are increasingly problematic with today's practice of "polypharmacy"(using two or more drugs together)

Deep state mind numbed robots go away. There is plenty of proof right here in this thread and you pretend that none of it exists. Worse than that you try to make anyone who has a problem with the flu shot sound like they are kooks. Saul Alinsky would be so proud of you. Please see Obama for your next assignment.
Why yes. I am a critical care physician and have rewarded dozens of cases spanning my thus far 30 year career.
