Hope I am not being premature or being accused of ‘Early Crow’
BUT

I have NEVER - to my knowledg - taken a flu shot.
I say to my knowledge because only ‘Lord knows’ what the Navy was injecting me with in the late 50s/early 60s but I have never knowingly taken the shot.

I have never come down with the flu or a show stopping cold.

I dress for cooler weather when it is cold (Don’t wrap myself in 12 layers when knowing I will not be in cold for ‘long’ duration and don’t get ‘caught’ by the changes in midseason, will still wear same till season changes.

I often say ‘When this jacket comes off, it is officially spring’.. call the lulls when everyone wearing heavy jacket for a few days then go back to ‘spring/summer’ wear because temp when up for a few days - “Pneumonia Weather”

I do keep a ‘Bear’ coat in my truck plus few blankets in the off chance I do break down while on the road.

I don’t push or recommend my ‘method’ but when people tell me ‘I had the flu’, S/A me will inevitably say
“Took the flue shot huh?”, Roll my eyes and go on to the next ‘sucker’....

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.
