    I am an advocate for flu shots , etc...

    The benefits of flu shots for everybody involved is very important.

    I will be getting both done, and making sure all my family gets it as well.

    Also work in health care so it is very important for myself to be vaccinated.

    I would also like to add that the people who do not get vaccinated put themselves at higher risk and their families of getting even sicker.

    Flu vaccines have been around for many many years and are defiantly proven to be safe and have eradicated many diseases.

    The diseases that are starting to pop up again from years ago, the only reason that is happening is people are deciding not to vaccinate anymore and that will cause more cases of these previous diseases to start making comebacks and start killing people.

    It is the diseases that can kill people not the vaccine.

    Wake up people.

    I would also like to add here in Canada. The flu shot and H1N1 shot will be a combined shot this coming season. So it will be included automatically in the regular flu vaccine shot.

    So it can be taken together, and all it is, is adding another type of strain to the vaccine which is what the flu shot is contained with different strains.

    Ive never had one nor do I think I ever will. After all they have no idea what is actually going to happen. This is a best guess effort by medicine to prevent something based on a guess. Im also one that thinks the more sterile life you have the more likely you are to get sick because your immune system doesn't know how to handle attatcks.
