In reply to the discussion: Got my high-dose "Old Geezer" flu shot today. [View all]Celerity
(54,711 posts)was a fail that year, in which case it again doesn't matter what you did.
I suppose they could be slagging you out for making other non-vaxxed people sick, but those non-vaxxers are to blame too when they themselves get sick.
We do not get the shots normally, as we (my wife and I) are both 23, and usually not in the US most winters, and the flu vax fail rate is high where we are at (UK and Sweden, plus other assorted places as we travel a tonne.) When we get older, decades from now, hopefully they will have sorted it out so that the vax works much better.
The whole thing is hardly on my list of priorities in life, and these threads seem designed to have a go at people and gin up anger and resentment from both sides. I understand that the average age here is vastly older than I am, so people have more skin in the game I suppose.
cheers and good luck!
