Well I refuse those flu shots these daze and I've gotten sick AGAIN,🤧don't think I'll make it back on tomorrow.🤒Every time I've gotten a flu shot I've gotten sicker, they say there's a worse strain of flu out, but they say it every year. 😞 Stay as well as you can, goodnight....avoid [b]people!😉🤧[/b]

@Peaches They were saying this year that the flu vaccine is not very effective, they got the strains wrong or whatever. I haven't taken the shot in decades because I always get Para-Flu and it averages 3X each winter. Never had Para-flu before getting a flu shot and haven't had it again since stopping the flu shots.

@Peaches GOOD!!!! They ain't the boss of us! A nurse the other day said.." get on the scale" I said "no"...she said "you have to" I said "no, i don't" her>> 'we need to know if you suddenly lose or gain weight...me>> "tell you what, if i can suddenly zip and button my jeans without lying on my back or if my jeans are buttoned and zipped but fall down to my ankles when I stand up...you'll be the SECOND to know!" I guess it's ok to refuse life saving procedures but not getting weighed????

@Peaches I meant to say...your "stay away from people" remark is SPOT ON!!! I have not had the flu or even a cold in decades...until now...I have a cough that makes me feel like my eyeballs are gonna pop out...only because I am going somewhere 3 days a week where I sit in a big room with other filthy humans breathing in their germs...doors closed...no air circulation. I'm going to have to wear a mask from now on!!!
