Nope, but my kid does. Being around a bunch of other little germ factories at school she’s at way more risk than me sitting in my isolated office. 🙂 ---

not anymore, I don’t think if ever really helped me. This thread has me wondering if you poll people on their political beliefs and thoughts about flu shots if you can find anything interesting? hmmm [http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/13/bill-maher-vs-the-flu-vaccine/](http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/13/bill-maher-vs-the-flu-vaccine/) ---

I would bet the tea party is very anti-flu shot. ---

I don’t know, it’s not that I am particularly afraid of dying from any virus/disease, but I just feel like since it’s free and easy to just get the damn thing that I might as well. It’s 1 in a billion chance of complications and then I don’t have to worry about throwing up all over the place for days and generally feeling like shit. I think that the people that REALLY are opposed to getting it are being a little silly about it. ---

I was against getting H1N1 in it’s first year and my daughter did not get it then. Maybe it was reckless but the shot was rushed through production and I don’t feel enough testing was done. This year she got it and I’m debating about it for myself. ---

I had the Flu 2 years ago and I don’t remember having it before. Knocked me on my ass for 3 days but I enjoyed staying at home and watching movies. Win, win. I am not against Flu shots. I just don’t get them. Out side of OTC Cold medicine when I actually get a cold or Vitamin C during the “cold and cough” season I really don’t take much of anything year round.
