Had the jab every year for the last 15 or so.
Still got the flu a couple of times but don't fall for the BS about the jab. It saves lives.
I look after folk and wouldn't dream of passing on Flu that could kill some of them

Oh and thanks for reminding me I have to sort out the flu jabs at work this year so I better get that sorted.

Just use common sense.
If you are not very young,old or pregnant then taking the chance of walking around without a flu shot really is not a big risk.
Just add up every year you have gone without the shot and have been fine vs how many times you got the shot and what happened next.
If something is not broke then perhaps no fix is needed.

The only time (I was inoculated 15yr ago) I got the flu. That cough that gets deep in your lungs, you literally feel your temperature rise each time you cough;
I haven't had one since, nor have I caught that NATTYYYYYY bug again. I was my hands every chance I can, keep copious amounts of han-San on hand (no pun intended) & drop a zertek every night...good luck!

I understand, and i have not had the jab for many years until today
although the reason i got it was more to shut the doctors up.
because i have been bombarded with health service texts, emails and letters about getting flue jab
(any UK people who are on the nhs will vouch for me on that)
