Do Flu shots really lead to getting the flu?
You have probably heard before from someone or other that flu shots can give you the flu. This is a myth. New research shows that you can not obtain the flu directly from the flu vaccine. Actually, the most probable way of catching the influenza is by inhaling small and intricate germs (obviously, unseen by the human eye,) off something like your hand. This inadvertent action brings the virus into one's body and is conducive to one becoming very ill. So the truth is out- next time you hear someone saying they do not get the flu vaccine because of their scare of the aftershocks of the virus, let them know that this is in fact not possible. Researchers and doctors continue to say, getting the flu vaccine is the best way to go. By getting this vaccine you are eliminating the risk of not only infecting yourself but also your families and friends. Doctors and nurses are urging citizens to be considerate and sign up to receive the flu vaccine.

Last year there were 4 strands of the flu that you could get. CONSIDERING I HAD 3 STRANDS OF IT ALL LAST WINTER, I WILL be getting the flu shot this year. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS INFORMATION.
ReplyDeleteThis is good to know, I never got a flu shot because I thought that I would get sick from it!
