[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every single time I have gotten a flu shot, I get the flu. Every year that I skip the shot, I don't get the flu. Unless your child has a compromised immune system, it's not a big deal.[/quote] No you don't. You might get sick, it might even be a terrible cold, but it isn't the flu. [/quote] Yes. I. Do. It's quite odd that you keep telling me what has and has not happened to me. I have been a nanny for 15 years. In those 15 years, I've had the flu shot 3 times. During those 3 flu seasons, I caught the flu. The other 7 years, I skipped the flu shot and did not get the flu. I am in no way claiming that the shot caused my illness. I am definitely pro-vaccination. In my experience, getting the flu shot does not 100% prevent flu. It was absolutely Influenza. I've had a cold and food poisoning before...the flu feels ENTIRELY different.[/quote] 7 + 3 = 10 sweetie, not 15. The way you worded your initial post, it sounded like you blamed the shot for your flu. [/quote] Pardon my math. You read my initial post the way you wanted to. Do you enjoy being an assh*** to complete strangers? Good luck to your family. I hope they survive you.[/quote] Why did you put stars instead of "ole"? Ass is the swear part of the word. :roll: You said "Every single time I have gotten a flu shot, I get the flu. Every year that I skip the shot, I don't get the flu." By your first post, flu shot = flu, no flu shot = no flu. FOR YOU. That sounds like claiming the shot caused the illness to me. No one says getting the flu shot prevents the flu 100%. [/quote]
