Perhaps but some of us older folk react badly to the flu so the shot is necessary even though they screwed up this year.

The brother next to me, rest his soul, reacted badly to whatever they had back in the late twenties as a childhood vaccine.

Oddly enough I was in hospital for summat (either appendectomy or having a cast removed) and the lad they brought in and put in the next bed had measles. It was no joke believe me, the full blown variety is no laughing matter.
