I get the shot every year due to being a nurse. I’ve worked in healthcare 20 yrs and have never gotten the flu. People don’t understand that the flu shot is not a guaranteed thing. It only DECREASES your chance of gettting the flu by 50%. And that’s if they get it right. There are a lot of viral illnesses that are flu like (flu is a virus) that have the same symptoms and make you feel the same. There isn’t a vaccination for those.

Wash your hands or use purell and be conscious of what you’re touching. That’s the best thing to do.
