The flu!!!!!!!!

Got it for the first time in 17 years. Today is Day 3 for me, yesterday was awful :_| Only just starting to feel better.

All 4 of us in the family have it, so much fun.

Flu shot next year??

Flu shot next year??

I know several people who got the 'shot', two of them nurses and they still got the flu. Personally, I don't think there is any guarantee.

I usually get the flu shot but didn't have the time this year and so far so good.

The best way to avoid the flu is to wash your hands.

I keep a bottle of hand sanitizer at the counter of my store for myself, the staff and customers.

There is no guarantee with the flu shot.

Ask your Doctor.

Definitely no guarantee. 

But, it is one of a number of things you can do to reduce your chances of getting the flu.

I used to get the flu twice a year like clockwork.

Touch wood (scratching my head), I have not had even a mild case of the flu.

I get the flu shot.

I wash and sanitize my hands many times a day.  I avoid touching things in public that a thousand other people have touched.  I avoid people who are coughing, sneezing, etc.  I eat healthy, get lots of exercise and make sure I get lots of sleep.  So far, so good.

Nurses are exposed to so many illnesses, it is a wonder that any of them survive more than a few years.  My neighbour is a cleaner in the hospital and she says that she is exposed to the flu almost daily.  She says she prays a lot.  I'll settle for a flu shot, thanks.

Get the flu shot every year for the past several years.

Did get a bad case of flu,literaly kicked my arse, and I am a tough dude. Was on my back almost 10 days and then another 3 weeks to get back to full strenght. Was never so sick in all my life.

I can understand how it kills millions and very serious for young and elderly.

Been having flu shots since. The flu is nothing like the common cold.

Have not had the flu since.

Have not had a common cold for 2 1/2 years. I attribute to quiting smoking and sweetening coffee in mornings with some honey, and herbal tea in evening with a little honey and a squeeze of lemon. And of course lots of hand washing with regular gentle soap,non of the anti-bac stuff

A fellow I know says he has never had a cold or the flu because he eats garlic everyday. The real reason is no one will come near him! His breath would knock a buzzard off a manure wagon!
