I am 60 years old and have never taken a flu shot. I've had the flu twice in my life, and found it to be no big deal. The vaccine doesn't seem to be worth the risk or the expense.
I haven’t had a flu shot since it was forced on me as a kid. As a result, I haven’t been sick during the flu season.
Those that have gotten the shot that I have known, would get sick. Their Dr would tell them that was another virus that attacked them and not the one the shot was suppose to prevent.
CDC and the WHO need to be investigated and punished for their BS hype and hysteria they caused.
Was awfully sad, extremely sad to read about pregnant mothers who lost their babies after taking the H1N1 shot.
Coincidence, maybe, but still suspicious. God Bless them.
I agree. I’ve never had a flu shot and never will because I don’t trust the government. The most dangerous animal on the planet is MAN.
I’ve had the flu plenty and recovered just fine. I’ll stack my immunity and ability to recuperate against anyone’s 19 years of flu shots. Perhaps they wouldn’t have gotten so sick if they’d toughed it out each year.
My situation is almost identical to yours, with the exception that I'm three years younger. To me it all boils down to a cost-benefit analysis, which can be performed only on an individual level. Is it worth the risk? I've always been concerned when taking vaccines that I'll be exposing myself to some unknown condition or pathogen while my immune system is diverted toward working on building immunity to whatever vaccine I've taken. It's the law of unintended consequences, which the medical profession doesn't seem willing to take into account. My policy has always been never to introduce foreign substances into my bloodstream unless there is a clear and compelling benefit to be gained, and that benefit clearly outweighs the risk.
