RE: Do we really have the choice when it comes to taking the flu shot?

in #vaccines8 years ago

I haven't had the flu shot since I was a kid in high school, around 12 years ago. I was 18 the last time I had the flu vaccine and I was 18 when I last had the flu.

My husband was in the Army and they'd have them get the vaccine every year, and every year, my husband would get real sick, just like you - about a week after the vaccine.

Since he's been out of the military, 2 years now, he's not had the flu.

It's definitely the vaccine making people sick.

Sort:  

Yes, I also do not trust vaccination against influenza. Without her, I was sick once in 4 years. And as I did, I fell ill at once.

Yeah funny how that goes all in the name of health

Well... we need to keep in mind that health care is a business. So they SELL you the vaccine, promising health. Then you get sick and need maybe some kind of medicine, which you have to BUY, again from the pharmaceuticals. Win-win scenario for them. We are better customers if we are vulnerable and sick so... makes sense.

Myself, being that my mum is a doctor, I see all this industry so hypocrite. All they worry about is money. First they make sure you can pay the treatment, then they start actually helping you recover. I have never taken the flu vaccine, and I never get the flu.

Great post @jolly-homestead !! liked it a lot

I totally agree with you that is one of the reasons why i am so happy I'm not working anymore I can be flu vaccine free. I am so glad your husband does not need to take it anymore.

Me too. Men are so hard to take care of. Haha
