it seems to me that there is an identical story published every year. sooner or later it will turn out to be true, but i see no evidence that it's any likelier in any one year than it is in any other.

It isn't. In fact, because I work in a skilled nursing facility, they keep hounding me every year to get the flu shot. Every year I refuse. The employees who get the shot almost all end up sick with something, but (knock on wood) so far I've escaped.

I'm a great believer in Vitamin C and immune system enhancement. Also they say if you drink two or three beers a day, you won't catch a cold. :^)
