Re: The Flu Jab
I know of one flu related death but that is hardly relevant. Personally I always take advantage of the free flu jab each year however one of the few advantages of being over 55 is that you have a higher immunity to new and exotic strains of flu due to previous exposure. Bird flu is still a risk.Re: The Flu Jab
I have had my flu jab this year so that's 2 years in a row. I don't even get a cold never mind flu.Re: The Flu Jab
I know the flu jab worked for me and I've only had a couple of colds over the last 14 years or so - after having a touch of one a few weeks ago, I'd rather not have to feel awful with a streaming nose if it isn't necessary. I suppose it's like everything else: some will benefit and others won't.Re: The Flu Jab
Since I have a serious chronic lung problem, the 'flu jab is an essential for me - have been having the injections for the past 12 years and it has prevented me from being admitted into hospital when various strains of the disease have run rife across the country.
