I have COPD and I need to get the shot every year. I know people don’t think about other people sometimes and there are some people who can’t take the Flu shot. Most people can and should because if they come down with the Flu and spread it to someone who’s immunity is not very good. It could kill them.
We got the flu shot in September, so we’re OK as far as that goes. (We’re 67 and 70 years old.)
We’ll be cruising through the Panama Canal in February, and are considering if we should get any of the vaccines on the CDC site for the five countries. None of the shots are mandatory, but some are recommended and some are just suggested. Decisions ... decisions.
