I'm sorta reclusive up here, I used to go to coffee w/the old farts club almost every day, now instead of burning the gas & jing just to listen to the same old BS, (these guys are/were in their 70s/80s/90s) I bank the bucks.

that being said I certainly have to shop but I habitually do that when the store is quieter in the evenings, so even there I'm contacting less people

so aside from a very wicked months long battle w/an intestinal virus back in '76 or '77 (not any kind of flu) I really don't recall getting the flu, I have received several flu shots over the years & guess I'm thinking of getting one tomorrow.

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. My condolences go out to his loved ones. It's been a while since I have had the flu (knock on wood) but when I have gotten it I was very sick. I don't mess around if something feels serious--straight to the doctor I go. Haven't gotten a flu shot in years but I'm beginning to rethink that. I feel the benefits outweigh the risks.

sorry to hear it

nfn certain sicknesses such as virus can attack organs, knew someone my age died that way. Good person, far better than me.

I work in the winter at a bar and 1000's of sick people come through that place. I used to get sick 3 times a winter. After this year's flu shot haven't been sick once.

Sorry to hear about your friend Lester. I had my first flu shot two years ago and haven't had the flu since, and last winter in Australia was the worst flu season ever by a large margin. I had no side effects whatsoever and highly recommend it to anyone. The flu shot plays no role in creating new viruses as you are only pre-activating your immunity using an inactivated virus preparation.
