Never any adverse reactions. |

If you're allergic to eggs it can be a pretty darned bad reaction. |

flu shot = 1-2 minutes of discomfort
flu= at least a week or 2 of misery.
My family has taken the shots for years . |

I never had one. I'm also alergic to Tetnus shots, so I make sure I get my daily doses of oil, greese, welding fumes, dirt, mold, mildew, and goldenrod pollen.

I get one every year, and have done so for many years. I did travel the world wide and was near lots of people. I do know some people that get the flu right after they get the shot????? |
