I honestly think the flu shot is somewhat of a hoax; I've never once gotten a flu shot (or the nose spray thing) and I have never in my life gotten the flu (neither had either of my siblings or my mom).. My mom never let us get it because she had a young teacher get the shot and die from the flu a few weeks later.. Just thought I'd put that our there..

Yeah, I think it`s pointless.

I once got the swine flu vaccine (the nose spray thing) and ended up getting swine flu.

I've never been vaccinated for any flu. Got the flu once.

I have asthma, so I'm offered the flu vaccine every year, but never had it and never had flu. I did, however, get the one for swine flu but still ended up getting it.
There's a reason it was the first shot I've ever gotten (except tetanus)

I didn`t get the shot for the swine flu, and never got it.

Ughhh still sick, I don`t think I`ll be back at school until Monday, and I have all this stuff due, and I`m too sick to even work on it. Lotsa fun.

I've never gotten the flu shot. I've never gotten the flu. I'm not opposed to it or anything, I just don't see the need.

So today I got cut from basketball. I was his final cut. He had me stay after and told me that if this one junior hadnt shown up yesterday I wouldve made it. He said to come back next year. I'm surprisingly not that upset. Everyone who I saw afterwards said I was walking around looking so confident and happy that theyd think that I was starting haha. Whatever I'll live
