Why do people say stuff like "everyone i know who gets the flu shot got the flu" ?

Can someone explain to me the notion that it is not only possible but probable that the flu shot will make you sick?

Because i can find nothing online that even agrees that you can even get the flu in this way.

All i have is my two years of flu shots and sickness

To put this in perspective, I've had the flu a couple of times. Nothing major. Few days downtime and done.

Each year i had the flu shot i had multiple bad cases of the flu and one connected case of pneumonia. I stopped after that and went back to being normal with a once every other year flu strain.

Now this is my case. It's been different for others i know, who absolutely swear by it.

To each their own. My case may just be a suceptability to the way they prep the vaccines. I firmly believe in vaccination. It's just this one case that screws with me biology
