I never was anti vaccine but this garbage has woken me up. Now I will probably never get another flu shot because basically the shot is only 25-30% effective. I can do way better on my vitamins.
worked directly with people face to face over a desk in a small room for years. people came in to that office from all over the country, sometimes from other countries to do business with us...
never had the flu shot, never had the flu.
i'm starting to think the two are somehow related.
Classic case of recency bias, most people don’t get the flu each year, the only reason why it may seem like people who get the flu shot get sick is because they are ones most surprised they got sick. The flu shot is a fine and well researched vaccine, no one says you have to get it.
While it may be fine and safe, if you look at the data from the last 15 years, it's averaged 40% effectiveness. Again that's the average which means some years it's only been 10% effective. It's pretty useless. Compound that with then needing to take it every year and the possible side effects if you read the insert, the risks far outweigh the small chance of reward.
It’s your choice. If it’s 10% effective some years that means it 80% effective others. If it can help limit the possibility of developing pneumonia in older and immuno-compromised individuals, I think any risk factor reduction is helpful.
A healthy person with a healthy immune system shouldn't need a man-made shot with who knows what's in it to avoid the flu IMHO. The body is a perfectly designed machine that heals itself if given the chance. Never had a flu shot, never had the flu. Getting colds now only since I've been wearing the fauxvid required mask at work. What's my secret(and I'm nearing 60), never take medicine! Maybe an aspirin occasionally for a headache. Not perfect, but seems to be working for me!
Used to get the flu shot regularly. I've taken my last flu shot. I trust absolutely nothing about it or the "authorities" claiming it is safe.

That's incredible. Thank you - never getting a flu shot again.
Same. I got the flu like once as a kid. I get the cold about once a year. That’s it.
