[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]12 yo just had it and it was probably the sickest I've seen him since he was v young, and he had had the shot. I dont know what it would have been like without it. His ped does not do tamiflu but in retrospect i would have pushed for it. One night was esp troublesome. [/quote]

I’m not sure how this is a PSA for the flu shot? Your kid had a terrible time on it anyway.

My kids have had the flu twice in the last couple of years. Once before they were able to get their shot and once after they got their shot. I could not tell the difference in terms of their sickness. The shot made no difference for them.

I personally haven’t gotten a flu shot since I was pregnant and don’t plan to. I haven’t had the flu in a long time despite my own kids getting sick with it. We mask in the house when they are sick.[/quote]
Seriously, it does make a difference, THEY DID NOT DIE![/quote]

The overwhelming majority of flu patients do not die, even without the vaccine.[/quote]
