    got mine. didn't hurt. if there is 1 in a 1,000 chance it saves me from the flu, it's worth it. it's made of a dead virus- can't get the flu from a dead virus.

    I only get them when there isn't a shortage of them.

    I have only gotten the flus shot one time basically to shut my mom up from nagging me. I have only had the flu once in my almost 47 years.

    I deal with such a crazy population (alcoholics, IV drug users, illegal Mexicans, people detoxing... etc) at work that I'd be crazy not to get mine.
