I got one last year. Haven’t got one this year, been too sick to get one. This cold has been a bad one.
No flu shot for me, wife, or kids this year. I typically never get it but the wife and kids usually do. But last year a few weeks after my wife got her shot she started to experience numbness in her arms and legs. Several doctor appointments and an MRI the doctors suspect she has never damage similar to guillain-barre. Both of her doctors won't say it's because of the flu shot but after hearing her symptoms the 1st question they both asked was did you get a flu shot. She's a nurse and is required to get the shot but both her PCP and the neurologist said they would right a note recommending that she should be exempt from future shots. A year later she is still battling the numbness, she can barely get down on the floor and play a game with the kids because of the pain and she's a pretty tough cookie.
Ive heard that it’s the closest thing to a cure for stupidity they’ve come up with so far!I'll stick to hand-washing, hand sanitizer, and generally avoiding people. Seems to be pretty effective against more than just the flu.
