Are you getting your H1N1 shot
 

So how many of you are going to get your flu shot ?

Just curious.

We will if they finally decide that over 65s are worth saving.

My daughter had H1N1 in June and I did not catch it. The second wave went through this part of the country in October and I did not get it. It is almost after the fact already and the vaccine is still not locally available so I will skip it. I may get the regular seasonal flu shot as that should start to surface now.

No, I won't be getting it. I'm 64 which means I'm at low risk for this strain and there isn't a lot of vaccine to go around. I never get the seasonal flu anyway.

I thought some folks over a certain age were more resistant to this flu due to built up immunity. Not that its much of a consolation .

H1N1 seems to go after younger people and pregnant women.

John

I am neither young, nor pregnant. But it doesn't matter as I refuse to get the vaccination anyhow, because my dog, who is a staunch Republican, has informed me that Obama has put "mind control drugs" in it. He's a Republican, and therefore incapable of lying, scheming or being incorrect, and I am a God fearing, Reagan loving, Yankee Doodle Dandy acolyte of John Wayne and William Shatner who will henceforth follow his every directive unconditionally. Lest I fall into the ranks of the "mind-controlled" as so many of you have.

I've never had a flu shot, and I'm not about to break my record.

That assumption is based upon you having had the shot or the flu during tha previous swine flu epidemic back sometime in the 70s. I never bothered with flu shots until I came down here in 84, and I do not recall whether I had the flu during the 70s.

Unless they shot me up when I was in the Army I've never had one and I don't think I've ever had the flu.
