No. Why? My brother had received a flu vaccination from his work. It ended up leaving him with permanent scarring on his spinal chord and giving him chronic pain for the last 12 years. After living with the pain for 6 years and struggling to get a diagnosis, he approached his employers to find out more about the medical folks they had brought in. Within 3 months they let him go for bogus reasons but we expect mostly out of legal fear. He had been employed there for almost 20 years. Now he's 60 years old with this medical condition and unemployed. I suppose that there is a 1 in a million chance that anything you do can fuck up your life but for me Ive seen the down side of those odds and will take my chances with the flu.

My brother got a dirty flu shot at his work. It left him with scaring in his spinal column which has given him chronic pain for over that last 12 years. After the first couple of years with many doctor visits to try and figure out what happened he told his employer of his situation. 3 month later he was terminated after over 10 years of employment. I wont get a flu shot and neither will my kids.
