Lifestyle Flu shots (yay or nay?)

[Yuki Nakai's Eye]

I have to get it for work.

Saying "it's bullishit" because they try to predict the strains is horrible logic. It just means flu shots are not very precise. If they are correct with the strain predictions you'll be protected!

Now their accuracy in predicting the strains...id love to see the data, because I'm guessing their track record is shit!

I wouldnt have the slightest idea how to interpret the data, would you? whats your field?

Facebook memes have made everyone a subspecialist/medical data analyst

I took a biostatistics class years ago....soooo, I'd need someone to interpret it for me

I think I could come up with something. Maybe.

There you go, data in excel. Hopefully its what you need, I have no idea myself.

Thanks

i heard the flu shot gives you shingles

That's the chicken pox vaccine.

Got mine last week. No AIDS or government nanobots detected thus far.

I think they left something in my arm. I have a knot the size of a golf ball. How big are nanobots?

No. Varicella prevents shingles. Flu directly gives them to you. But if you take them both then you become autistic immediately.

I don't know if you got the same one I did (different parts of the world) but the injection sight was sore for like 2 days after I got mine. No nanobots though.

 

[Yossarian]

I send out nanobots through my dick.

That's common.


If the person screws up with the shot it can leave a knot for a bit though.

Replace Op with flu shot.

I've been immune since mid November. I switched back to shorts and sandals.

Just picked up a pair of Sperry's for the winter.

I'm aware. I've just never had soreness for any extended periods in other years

 

[jason73]

Anyone who has ever done a cycle of steroids knows that you get a knot at the injection site once in a while.eess normal

Must be the nanobots getting comfy.

I didn't realize it was plural. Make sense.

Just had to get my yearly stabbing and TB test.

Don't forget to get your pets spayed or neutered.

Never got a flu shot until last year, when I was sick for 10 days. After I recovered, I said "fuck this shit, never again".

I'll be getting one later today

This side of tetanus, never again will another "free" shot enter my body.

Why? When's the last time you heard of someone dying from tetanus?

 

[SongExotic2]

I don't get any shots. Guess how many times I've died from getting shots

 

[sparkuri]

Dying, no.
Lockjaw, about 10 years ago when a dude stepped on a rusty nail.
So he certainly could've died, and that may happen to me in the middle of nowhere, but even on that I'm doung my research.

He was transported and fixed up, but that shot cost money.

Anything that's "free"(& pushed) particularly a flu shot(a virus I've fought my entire life successfully), I'll research first.
