I’m guessing you have little background in epidemiology or an understanding of biological incidents. You are one person. Flu killed an estimated 50 to 100 million people in 1918 before viruses were even discovered. Yersenia pertis wiped out half the European population in the Middle Ages. A single virus killed more people than all wars combined including millions of soldiers. I promise you that you will get very ill and die just as miserably as all living humans do and you didn’t get a flu vaccination.

A response to your nasty message....
I am pushing 80 and haven’t had any problems.
I don’t go to Doctors and the ONLY medication I take is an occasional aspirin or rollaid.
My last Physical was in 2007 in preparation for cataract surgery. I will go for the post op checkup one of these days. My previous physical was upon discharge from the Navy and we all know how that plays out when one is ‘young and bulletproof’ and they would rather have you sign a waiver.
Maybe because I HAVEN’T gotten all those shot over the years.
I don’t know and I am aware of history.
The ‘odds’ are with you based on known fact.
However, who is to say I am NOT wrong?
I respect your opinion on the subject yet you wish me ill.
How Christian is that?
As to dieing, I will say you are correct but who knows what the future will bring?
I didn’t think I would make it to 30 so this is bonus time for me.
I will have to put you in the class that HOPES I get deathly ill so you can say ‘I told You so’! I did tell my neighbor that I figured he secretly hoped I would get the flu ..But I was joking with him.
NOT so when it comes to you, WHO are you to PROMISE me anything?
I did not wish you ill, I simply stated commonly known facts based on evidence based medicine. I am going to get sick and die an agonizing death too. I am not a human Doctor, but I do have a license to treat all other species. I simply have seen and heard too many cases of people neglecting the health of their animals until the last hour, when if they had presented them early in the disease course they could have been easily saved. I’ve seen and watched this happen a thousand times to include people that don’t vaccinate animals for easily preventable diseases and often discover after death that hey, I could have vaccinated them against rabies, flu, blackleg, distemper, lepto.... Medicine does not have all answers, just some, just as you use an electronic device for communication, yet everything about electronics is not known.
