I’m all for vaccines and have never been harmed by any as far as I know. I spent a career in the military and took probably a hundred in that time, counting boosters and repeats like Yellow Fever every 10 years, for instance. In basic training they gave us so many that they hit us in both arms at the same time with big injector guns. Our arms were sore that next day, I’ll tell you that much. I also took the full anthrax series while some people were getting kicked out of the military for refusing them.
So yeah, I take a flu shot each year and would do so if they were only 10% effective. I’ll take what I can get in this cruel world. I also take a daily multivitamin, whether it’s effective or not.
That said, I have some possibly fringe ideas about our Diabetes epidemic and a belief that the problem is low fat diets, carbs, and our food pyramid. So, what can I say about anti vaccine folks.
Speaking of which, my Mom and Sister refuse to take flu vaccines, so to each their own.
