Flu Jab
Comments

I wish I could get flu jab. too young and no illnesses. Thankful for that of course but about 15 years ago I took flu 2 years in succession around January/February. I can tell you I never suffered like it for nearly 2 weeks each time. I would honestly have welcomed death. A lot of people take a small dose of the cold and think they have flu. They are better after a couple of days. Trust me, if you get the proper flu you will know it and remember it. Get your jabs!I started out with nothing......And still have most of it left:p0

I'm sure you can have it if you ask for it. Maybe there's a small fee, I don't know. At any rate it's worth asking your GP about.0 -
Got the jab about 2 weeks ago.
No reaction at all. Have been getting the jab for the last 20 seasons without any problem or flu.
Don't mess about --get the jab ASAP!0 -

Its not an age thing its because of Health IssuesYou're too young to be getting the flu jab.

One thing I noted in the link which maybe some people haven't thought about - if you care for, or call on, a vulnerable person - such as elderly parents - then you need to get the jab because you could pass the flu virus onto them.
What do you think Cotta?0
