Flu bug going around

Candace was sicker then hell all weekend with the flu, she is still sick. A friend of ours works in the hospital out here she said over 2,000 cases of the flu so far just at the hospital. Havasu got hit hard too with the bug.

It's been two weeks now, I'm good, never had the cough, just headcold stuff.
The old joke is that you catch it "from sleeping next to an open crack"......Hmmmmmm

I'm fighting that shit right now. Never had a flu shot, never will as far as I'm concerned. Too much foreign shit in them.

I agree.
I know someone that is pregnant and the DR basically, more or less, told her she NEEDS to get one.
She said the pregnancy one is a different strain or its all active or some bullshit like that lol.

I wonder how much doctors get per shot because it's overrated. My wife never got one when it was bad.

Oh sure, I get a flu shot every year. Who knows what strain you'll catch, so the shot is just throwing the dice. I got the flu...just not the one I was preventing. My Insurance covers preventative medicine. Every year when I get a Physical, any shots or preventative medicine is covered, stuff like Flu shots, Shingles shots, Tetanus, whatever. My Mom ( now some years passed ) was a RN ( Registered Nurse ), and I grew up with the straight skinny on medicine. I take no medications on a regular basis, I'm pretty healthy in general, but now and again, "better living through Chemistry" as is warranted.

Not me, I've never had the flu shot and my company pays for them, I also don't use hand sanitizer religiously either. It seem like the people that are germaphobic are the ones that get sick more often

I got a flu shot one time about 18 years ago and I've never been so sick in my life, aside from the MRSA bout. Did it once, never again. It's a crap shoot to begin with.

As far as the hand sanitizer, that goes hand in hand with the over-prescription of antibiotics. Your body needs to be exposed to the germs to know how to fight them. They like to get crazy handing out z-packs for the common cold, which doesn't do anything against a virus.
