I got a flu shot yesterday. It was my first one ever. I've never bothered with one before because the dead virus in the shot never matches the flu that we end up with during flu season. This year, however, the scientists guessed correctly, which form of the flu that would be around. So here's hoping I don't get sick. I've had the flu once in my life and besides the actual flu lasting a few weeks, it took me months to get my strength back.
I've been considering the flu jab for a little while now but haven't really felt the need. I was rather ill a few months ago though (I did become rather concerned at my high temperature day after day) which kept me off work for an unheard of 2 weeks so it might be time to reconsider. Whatever happens in the meantime I'll probably start having the jab regularly from 55 on wards.
