The truth about flu shots and vaccines?

What's your opinion on it? I hear a lot about it on both sides, both for and against. It's a very controversial subject, but I'm just interested in everyone's opinions. How has it affected you or someone you love? Have you had an experience with it?

I retired from a hospital. We had to get them every year, it was mandatory. I will not get another one. I have gotten sick from the shot on more than one occasion.

@Mbingh01 I got sick the two times I got a flu vaccine growing up. I stopped getting them. I don't know why the hell I chose to get a different kind of vaccination from my employer as an adult though. It may be responsible for almost killing me. They convinced me through fear. Fear is a very powerful thing to get people to make poor choices.
ANd guess what? I eat health and have a healthy lifestyle now and haven't been sick in about 8 years. And I have been around a few very sick people.
