everybody sick after flu shots

December 17, 2003

I am definately hearing more people have the flu this season, but many are

telling me it happened after their flu shot. It's not like I'm taking a

poll, but I tend to remember what I hear and put it together. I actually did

hear someone say they are refusing flu shots for religious reasons, but the

vast majority are not getting it because they don't think it is safe and

effective. Everybody I know thinks pregnant women should not get it. I was

pregnant last year and it was not offered and I think it may have been on

the list of things a pregnant woman should not do(maybe just 1st trimester

though). Those who did get the shot are having a longer flu than those who

didn't. All anecdotal evidence points to the exact opposite of what medical

evidence claims. Hmmm, We're running out of flu shots huh? Well isn't that

convienient?
