The CDC released early estimates of the influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) today. Many of us saw the report circulating that the VE was 23% overall. But if you happen to be 18-49 years old, its only 12%.

Just because you didn't get sick doesn't mean the vaccine had anything to do with it.

We live in a very septic world. Are you talking politically or epidemiologically?

We went from catching the flu every single winter to never catching it again. What would you attribute that to, luck?

I find the same thing true. Exposure to toxic grandchildren is my biggest risk, LOL.

I never have gotten the flu vaccine, but have gotten the flu several times ... :-) ...
This year I got it pretty bad and I’m still recovering, about two weeks later.

I was about 40, so 12-13 years ago.
As I said, the vaccine itself didn’t give me the flu. My doctor friends say that it is medically impossible. Instead, it temporarily lowered my resistance and I caught the flu regardless of the vaccine. Within a week, both times.

A young woman in Nashville died the other day from the flu even though she had a flu shot this year.

It takes at least 2 weeks or longer for the vaccine to protect you (as said by the doc) so you might have already been exposed.

“I get one every year in accordance with my doctors orders.”
I do the opposite. never.
“Been doing this since 2008 and have not had the flu since then.”
Me to. No flu.

Same here, the one time I got a flu shot I got very sick a week later. No more shots for me.
To: albie
The only flu shot I ever had was in mid 1966 when Uncle told me to I had to have it. It was 100% effective, I got the flu almost immediately. By the next year I'd learned I could tell Uncle, "No, I'd my body."
Haven't had the flu since.

Dig a large hole in the ground. Make a nice bed in it. Sleep through the winter. That's the best way to avoid the flu.

it totally is. i remember that the year (2007/8?) they didn’t offer a vaccine less people died of the flu that year than the years they did.

Holistically.
It comes under the sway of the Second Universal Rule, aka “The Doctor’s Rule”: “Stool Gets Everywhere”.

I agree. The pharmaceuticals are making out like bandits. Everyone in a "home" gets them...and they all get the flu.
Regular old folks in their own home don't go out....and they don 't get the flu. I had it 50 years ago....and not since.
To: ASA Vet
I watched them giving the “double dose of swine flu” shots in the military, and they all immediately got deathly sick. I just signed my shot record and left after that .... never took a flu shot, always signed my shot record, and never got the flu.
