That was flu coming for the unvaccinated
I ain't vaccinated. Ain't never been hit by no bitch on a slide.

Wait I guess I am vaccinated. About 6 fucking times.

But I refused the last rabies one. That one was optional so I said fuck off

Man, we're going to miss you when you die due to flu.

Yes guess work. Common knowledge. You talk to me as if I am a dumbshit man. (Which is true, but you can't possibly know that!!)

The number of deaths by flu is also guesswork. So it's a lot of guesswork I need to consider. While the claim is 36000 people die in a year, the real number is close to 2000. Yes, the flu is far more costly than those 2000, but it is all guesswork from there.

The population got a lot older, so naturally we'll see an incline of flu-related deaths as well. Logic. If flu is such a big killer, why are people not wearing facemasks,, instead of relying on a unreliable vaccine that gives you a false sense of safety, where you take more risks.
For perspective, if someone said "I've got a shot that cures cancer. No major side effects, but the odds of it working are 1 in 4." Would you still be completely against getting it because it was a waste of time?

I would take it. But flu ain't no cancer. I get the point though.

Probably swine flu
A lying cunt mate of mine pretended to have that when it was famous. Got confined to his room immediately. Chow hall wouldn't let me take him any food "it has to be eaten in a specific time frame and we have no way of knowing you won't leave it a week, get sick, and then blame it on us"

Haha.

Stupid fuckers. I didn't argue tho I knew it would create major issues in the circumstances and I also knew 100% that my buddy is a lying workshy cunt.

i know people in 1918 would've given there left nut(and probably their right nut too) for a flu vaccination.

I find it interesting that as rates of flu vaccination increases, so does the number of people who contract the flu.
Shouldn't it happen the other way around?
Shouldn't we be at an all time low in flu rates as we're at an all time high in flu vaccination rates?
Almost as if the flu vaccine doesn't work at all or even contributing to the spread of the flu.

Or the population is growing, and possibly at a rate faster than the distribution of flu shots.

Nope, never get them.

I have to laugh at all you fruits bragging about how much you wash your hands. I eat like shit and hardly exercise and I never get sick. Why? Because I hardly ever wash my hands (unless I get shit on them, which happens more than I'd like to admit). Embrace the germs, keep your immune system on it's toes. Think of your immune system like a fighter: do you want it training and sparring every day, or do you want to keep it safe with all your sissy soap and disinfectants? Then, like a fighter who has been coddled and protected, it gets murdered when it steps up to a real opponent.

The people who are walking around with a perpetual cold or flu are the germaphobes who disinfect everything and are constantly washing their hands.

Do yourself a favor and watch this Carlin bit

Thimerosal
Thimerosal, an ethyl mercury-containing antimicrobial compound, is used in multidose vial preparations of IIV to reduce the likelihood of microbial growth that might occur if organisms are introduced via the needle and syringe. Although accumulating evidence shows no increased risks from exposure to vaccines containing thimerosal (360370), the U.S. Public Health Service and other organizations have recommended that efforts be made to eliminate or reduce the thimerosal content in vaccines as part of a strategy to reduce mercury exposures from all sources (360,361). LAIV, RIV, and most single-dose vial or syringe preparations of IIV do not contain thimerosal. Persons recommended to receive IIV may receive any age- and risk factor–appropriate vaccine preparation, depending on availability.
