A local provider came today and is providing the 2010-11 Flu vaccine in our building's lobby. I usually get the vaccine, so offered up my arm this morning.
What's your take on the vaccine?
I've never gotten sick from the vaccine or gotten the flu since I pretty much get it every year. Before I started getting the shot every year I had gotten the flu a couple of times and really hated being laid low for a week or more.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but there's something about mass inoculations that I don't trust.

I will probably get it.
Also, I heard that this year's vaccine has an H1N1 vaccine in it as well. Has anyone else heard that?

That's what is says on WebMD, and at least one other variety is also included that's already shown up.

Got the shot last year with all the H1N1 publicity. Will probably wait for the medical experts to advise.

Will get it without hesitation....I see a minimum of 25 patients per day to 80 patients per day----without doubt, I will get the vaccine. Always get the flu vaccine and have never gotten the flu while being around, at the minimum, 500 people who have the active flu per year. I beleive in it and MAKE my parents take it, also. Just my thoughts and beliefs....you can feel differently and it will not bother me---in the least bit!

I think it's the mercury that's included in the vaccine that I don't trust.

I had the flu shot last weekend. Bit of a sore arm, but worth it not to get the flu. I get the flu shot every year.

I usually don't get one....rarely get sick. Did get the child's version for my daughter though...the one they spray up each nostril....boy she loved that!!
She caught something nasty a bit over a year ago that had her in the hospital for 2 days with a elevated heartrate and very bad fever so not taking any chances. Took a few years off my life worrying about her.

Yes, I get it every year. It's sort of like a condom, better to have one and not need it than to need one and not have it.
