Flu Shots? Will you, Won’t you and Why?
Got my 1st annual seasonal flu shot yesterday ... did not feel a thing then or now. Anticlimatic for sure. I expected at least a tender shoulder or some heat ... just something to confirm in fact that my sentinel cells had noticed the new comers and moved to get my immune system fighting same. So what about the H1N1 shot. You getting it or not and why? My own position is that I'm getting it when and if it is available. I have my doubts but we'll see. As to why - for the following in no particular order:
- Every week I am around elderly men and women
- Most weeks I'm around pregnant women and / or young children
- Every week I'm in the company of school teachers
- I live with an elderly sister and have a second elderly sister.
