Some vaccines require a certain number of live virus in order to provoke the intended immune responses, that's why sometimes after ppl get certain vacc's they get sick, usually those with already depressed immune systems, as far as the flu vacc it depends on which strains they are covering for that season weather live viri are included or if all are dead. ( I used to have to work in the infectious disease ward at the county hospital, fun, fun) Me personally being young and not prone to getting sick I dont get them, If I do get the flu it useually is very mild and then I'm naturally vaccinated.You supposdly can't get sick fom the vaccine because the virus in it is dead.

I've been out for 6 years now and haven't had the flu once.
body2see said:I dont think that was an actual "flu" shot they gave you in the Marines LOL!! You can rest assured that it was some experimental vaccination and or test drug, thats what I would be willing to guess!!
body2see said:Im sure I will be fine, i realize that...but what Im wondering is does the vaccine in actuality have a positive effect...and if so...what are member's experiences with it?? This is the 1st flu vaccine I have ever taken, i've always turned them down in the past..so I guess thats more along the lines of what im looking 4.
