Dude are you serious? Getting a flu shot is awesome. It’s like a big ego trip every year. First of all try and find a cute nurse.
Cute Nurse: “Okay roll up your sleeve please”
*rolls up sleeve
Cute Nurse: “Sir please stop flexing”
Me: “I’m not flexing”
Cute Nurse: “Okay just relax your arm”
*shakes arm loosely
Me: “That’s as soft as it gets”
Cute Nurse: “I’m gonna need a bigger needle”
Don’t get it cause it’s a scam. It’s about making billions of dollars not keeping people healthy. If you’re in the health industry why in the world would you sell a product that prevented people from actually needing your services in the future? Doesn’t make sense.
People who get the flu have weak genes.

Immunotherapy or other treatments that change the way the immune system functions.
Its not paleo.

FYI, recent research points to the flu being mostly psychosomatic in nature for the vast majority of individuals.

This. Herd immunity. You’re very unlikely to die from flu, but there’s a risk you can infect someone who will.

Silly man, this has nothing to do with trying to reduce death, this has to do with Big Pharma making money. When oh when will you all not learn. We never had death, disease or health issues in this world, when we all ate grass feed yak, bald eagles eggs and water from a Alaskan glazier.
I think I have the flu right now.
I haven’t been sick in over a decade, but with recent late nights working, 3 parties last weekend (I’m sure I picked it up at one of them), back doing DC workouts, I’m probably a bit taxed in the immune department.
Feel sluggish, tired, and achy… but not severely. I’ve been on a lot of fish oils, D3 and C.

No, Derek was right. The water was supplied by an Alaskan construction professional who selects, cuts, installs, replaces, and removes residential, commercial, and artistic glass.

Lol, doing to many things at one time. 
It was a semi serious question… And the thread turned into a troll thread xD. Anyway, back to trolling. I will also just get it from a single dose (which doesn’t have the thimerosal) or not get vaccinated at all for it. Also on a side note, you got this, we can do this, do it together…

I didn’t spend six years in Evil Medical School to just be called mister, thank you very much.
