There is a ton of research going on that is uncovering weird links between viruses, bacteria, our mental state, emotions, behavior, our immune response, etc. We are uncovering a TON of stuff we didnt even know we didnt know about how those things all work together. Some of that "junk" DNA is actually viral DNA married into the rest of our DNA. In short, we have no idea how we work, really, and we dont understand the interconnections between us and bacteria and viruses.
Human beings have co-existed with the influenza virus for quite some time, there is always the possibility that we need each other. Who knows. All I know is that I am going to continue on the way my ancestors have evolved to. Getting the flu on occasion. Allowing my immune system to do what it does. And someday perhaps dying of it. I have to die of something. The flu is not my worst possible option.

I hear that exposing yourself to illness raises your immune system. Perhaps this vaccination will prevent the flu, but what about other similar bugs that would override the vaccination? Could this make us actually weaker?

You raise a valid point.My personal feeling is yes it could make us weaker.It could be possible that all vaccines do this.
I agree big pharma is dangerous
