I got my seasonal shot a couple of weeks ago and I can get the H1N1 shot in about 2 weeks.

I have gotton one each year for the last 10 or so years. Got it Thursday afternoon. Haven't had the flu since I started getting the vaccines. Arm was a bit sore for 2 days though. All better now. thumbsup

I never get them, and also never get the flu. Or not seriously enough to notice. I don't really trust the innoculation and at 57 years old have already been exposed to variations of the H1N1, or so I've heard. We work outside and have limited contact with people so not really much to worry about. Save the vaccine for those more at risk.

Good luck.

When I go shopping I wash all my fruit and vegetables and hands.

I didn't get any reaction after getting the seasonal shot.

I aways eat vegetables every day plus chicken meat and some fruit.

I don't even remember ever having a cold.

Not had mine. Not had a flu shot since I was 10, and I've never had the flu, or, like coasty, not seriously enough to notice. Not bothering until people start dropping at a rather more apocalyptic rate than this. I know several people who have had the swine flu, and for normally healthy people it's no biggie.

Similar boat to semmern & coasty. Other people need it more than I do. Besides, I hate shots.

Yep, about two weeks ago.

Will get the H1N1 when it is available as well. I work in the health care field so it is almost a must. Now if they come up with a MRSA vaccine then that would be something.
