Flu Shot?

[Lawdwaz]

Who didn't get one, besides me. I got my first & only one last year. Seems I'm about the only one in my extended family that doesn't get one.

How 'bouts you?

[ants]

Ive got one for the past 5 years, but I blew it off this year

[Pygmy]

I have never got one, and seldom had the flu until LAST YEAR...

I contracted the flu last year and had to cancel a visit to my sister in Florida...Then I got it again this year and missed most of the final week of deer season..

NEXT YEAR, I will get the durn shot....Y'all remind me next year to do that...I CRS anymore...I think it's time for my nap...

[Big Indian]

Have not gotten one in 10- 15 years. The one and only time I got a flu shot I was never sicker !

As a person in the health care field, I don't believe in them for otherwise healthy adults. Anyone with a co-morbid condition ( diabetics, immunosuppressed, etc....) should get one

[josephmrtn]

We never have and never will..... the stuff they put in them is CRAZY bad for you plus i think some of the ingredients are extracted from aborted babies... i know a lot of the sweeteners in soda are.... its CRAZY what they put in our food and medicine nowadays.... my mom is a very health minded person as well as being studying to try to get a healthcare (midwifery) license (LOTTA medical schooling!!!) so she knows her stuff.... also we have always been a very healthy family

Never ever. Caught the flu 3rd week of bow,( or something like it). Had it 2 weeks into shotgun, got over it. Then got it back on the 28th, when we went with the SIL to the casino. Getting over it again, but that cough hangs on. Maybe next year, I'll get thew flu shot, so I get sick then.

Havent ever got the flu shot. Never really got the flu either until this year. Have been home sick since friday with 102 temp and coughing like crazy. Toady is the first day i am feeling better. Thinking about getting it next year lol.

Nope, and Im sick right now lol.

Never got one and never will. They are bottled in China and you are out of your mind to be injecting anything from China into your body.

[Early]

Get one every year.....Never sick with the flu

[Doewhacker]

" you plus i think some of the ingredients are extracted from aborted babies... i know a lot of the sweeteners in soda are...."

"They are bottled in China "

haha

More shots for the rest of us.

[First-light]

Got sick right after the flue shot this year, must of been those aborted babies! lol

I probably will pass next year......

[dbondi]

Flu shots are loaded with carcinogens as well as toxic heavy metals. Look up videos of Bill Gates talking about population control through vaccines

[Lawdwaz]

Anyone with a co-morbid condition

Sounds like they are already dead.......<grin>

I got it once many moons ago and only because it was being offered right at the office I was working at at the time. I've been meaning to get it ever since but I either forget or get lazy. Also because I haven't gotten the flu in years.

I knew there was something funny about my diet pepsi !!!

I still believe that jello is made from horses hoove !!

[MountainHunter]

I have never gotten one and don't believe I ever will. I am hardly ever sick, although last week I had a stomach virus.

[d-bone20917]

I never used to but I've been getting them since my first child was born because of the concern with having the flu around a newborn baby. I've been getting them ever since (7 years). We get them free at work so it's tough to pass up.

[wooffer]

Funny how the rate of flu cases is rising even though we are vacinating more people each year. Probably just a coincidence.

[Doewhacker]

Maybe because all of the people that rush to the ER now a days instead of just staying home. All that free health care wasted on the flu.

But you're not wrong. Jello is made from horses hooves. At least partially. The main ingredient in jello is gellatin which is made from the collagen from the hide and bones of animals. Usually pig, cattle, and horses.

Just being bottled in China is enough of a warning for me. Not sure why we allow anything we ingest to come from an enemy nation that feeds it own people melamine and other poisons.

[Doewhacker]

They are made in the following countries

Australia

US

Canada

UK

Japan

YOu can research the origins of the producing companies through the FDA

Anybody got any links to support some of the doom and gloom claims here?

Had 2 bad cases of the flu in the early 90's - never want to be that sick again.

Got the shots the last 15 years or so with zero side effects - and have not had another case of the flu.

I usually put a nice big dab of dairy cool whip on my hides and bones, LOL.
