My youngest was phobic of needles. He has passed out more than once. Now, we have him lie down before he gets the shot and stay lieing down until he says he can get up.
When the nasal vaccine was finally available in Canada, he was a teen. We looked into it, and apparently the side effects are a bit stronger and a bit more common. He decided he would rather just get the shot.
The nasal vaccine was pulled for a few years because of those side effects. But it's back this year with those allegedly gone. Guess we'll see....
My husband and I will get ours next week. Our kids will get theirs sometime in October.
Well, I’m currently reading-re-re-re-re-reading The Stand per Doc Creed , so yea, I’ll get one. Plus, I am a teacher and kids get sick.
I’m willing to beg all of you to get the shot if you can. There are medically fragile children and adults who can’t get one and for them the flu could be fatal.
...just had to get a Hep A vaccine again...there’s been an outbreak in our prison system....
One of my teachers a few years ago lost a friend to the flu so getting a shot is definetly not something to overlook, especially if you work with other people.
Yes, I will get a flu shot this year. Vaccine is not available usually until end of October or first part of November.
...that's common, it's when we start our mass immunizations at work.....
Circle, circle, dot, dot. SwiftDog gave you all a cybercootie shot
