CDC recommends flu shots for every kid in America born till age 18

I refuse to take a flu shot... even when offered for free. This is such bullshit. How many people have you known that get those damn things and then turn around and get sick anyway? I guess it provides a nice cash machine for whomever produces the flu shots.

I ONLY get the flu when I have had a flu shot. I stopped getting flu shots several years ago.

Yep lets ban vaccine. Epidemic is better than vaccines minor side effects.

No one is saying ban vaccines, but c'mon not every child is able to be vaccinated with this stuff. Something more needs to be done to save those children who are likely to be effected.
 
i notice that when i did get a flu shot my immune system was compromised and i picked up a very bad cold.

Your far better in life to just stay healthy, take vitamins, and practice personal higeene..

This is one chap who's not going to get altimeters when im old cause i was a fool and put heavy metal in my body annually.

This is just a recommendation by a random CDC panel, not a requirement, and it will probably have no overall effect. I've personally never had a flu shot. I've only gotten the flu like once 10 years ago. It's not a big deal to me because I don't live in crowded conditions.

Just like I'll never convince Hitler that the Joos aren't the source of all the worlds ills.

Why do twins develop autism together about 50% of the time? It CAN'T be because of genetic factors...

of COURSE it's because of genetic predisposition. I already stated that. BUT it's also common knowledge that it is environmentally triggered. The predisposition, btw, is likely some kind of allergy.

Altitude meters?
 
Is there anything people here wont argue about and get all upset over?

If you don't want a flu shot - don't get one!
If you want a flu shot - knock yourself out!

It's all good.

The problem is that some are for making it mandatory.....whether on a city level or a state level.

LOL have you ever looked at the requirement for getting a PHD? You basically have to write a 500 page book of pure research at the end of the study. It's not easy at all.

like i said. time and money. these people are by no means mistake free however. you are you own best advocate for yourself. Always get multiple opinions and do your own research before you go thru any medical procedure.

Absolutely. It is not that hard, at least for someone of my ability. :) Seriously, I have two cousins who have PHD's and they are off making the big bucks. That's just it, they're off.....not here.....had to move. I refuse so I stopped at my masters. No use going through the trouble or putting out the money if I am not willing to move. That was 20 years ago and I don't regret it one bit. But there is no doubt that I could have gotten a PHD if I had wanted to invest the money and the time.......and I'm not all that smart.
