I thought this might help a few people make their decision on whether or not to have the "flu jab" :-)

That is interesting and I stand corrected Bearess :D

I could swear it was possible for some people to get it :o Never mind we learn something new everyday :)

Many fluffies to you Bearess and thankyou this should make it a lot easier for people to decide now :)

Hi there zeb :-)

I too thought you could get flu from the flu jab but apparently not :-)

I had the injection last week and must admit, I did feel a little "off colour" for a day :-(

Hope you make the right decision that suits you :-)

Hi haribo - I hope you're making the right choice for yourself - please don't take my advice, I'm not a doctor - I just felt the information would help :-)

Goodness,thank you so much Bearess, I have obviously been misinformed and am glad that you have accurate information. I really did think one could get a reaction, but I am very pleased that it isn't the case.... Well done :-) :-)
