It seems like everyone around me is sick as a dog with the flu recently. It's shaping up to be a pretty bad year. I got my shot but am nervous since about half of the strains mutated. I am just wondering who here has had or has the flu this season and if you got shots or not?
It's early so I don't expect this poll to be that great of a measure, just curious how it is shaping up on DU so far and if the shots are doing much good.
Only answer that you got the flu if you are very sure it was the flu and not something else.
By the way, I still think it is very important to get your flu shots. In no way is this post meant to suggest you should not get them.
