I was basically forced to get it by my employer back in November. I would have probably gotten it anyways if it wasn’t too expensive. I think it probably helps the herd but might not be necessary for every individual and it sounds like the CDC really dropped the ball when they chose the strains to include in the vaccine. I think the vaccine itself has room for improvement too.
If she died from the very strain in the vaccine, no one dropped the ball. The shot just didn’t work.
There is no way to predict odd strains. They don’t occur until flu season.
