Flu Shot Information

Updated

My job almost forces us to get the flu shot which i think is stupid and don't agree with. Is there anything i can take to counter the flu shot and make it as though it wasn't given?

Hello, Spots! How are you?

No, there isn't.

Would you rather get the shot or risk your life, since the flu can be fatal? Please don't think I mean to be rude, but I am just laying things honestly on the line and out in the open for you.

My fiancé has to get it every year for his job and, since I had congestive heart failure 5 years ago, my doctor insists that I get it, too.

It makes perfect sense, to be honest, anything that could cause my lungs to fill up with fluid, could lead to another CHF… and my fiancé would hate to put me at risk, by not having one and being exposed to it at work.

The fact is that the flu prevents far more harm than it ever causes, just like all other vaccinations, which is why some states are even doing away with the religious exemptions.

What problem do you have with getting it? Perhaps that can be addressed to better help you.

Please note: I am not saying that anyone should be forced to do anything, but…. if you work in a field where getting the flu could put someone else's life at risk, like my fiancé does, then it is only reasonable that they require you to get your flu shot.

I am 65 and need to get a flu shot as well as I had chicken pox in the 50's! I went to the Er with the flu over Christmas and then after new years and was admitted overnight! I have been ill for three days with a different flu and am currently ill! Is there anywhere I can go to get a free flu shot?
