[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Flu A was all over the schools last year too, at least in FCPS. I’m starting to wonder why we even bother getting the shots every year. [/quote] Because even this year, the flu shot will help you have a more mild case and avoid serious issues if you get the shot. 27 years ago (or 28) was a really bad flu year. I got the shot. I was off work for 2 weeks when I got the flu, despite being 27 and healthy. However, people without the shot were out for almost a month. So yes the shot helps, even if it is mismatched for the strains. [/quote]
