    Thankfully I’ve never really had any major reaction to flue shots aside from a sore arm for a couple of days, but I know people who get knocked flat for a day or two afterward and they still get them because they know the actual illness is much, much worse and affects more than just them.

      Oh yeah, I’d much rather be laid out by a flu shot than the actual flu. And I’m sure it was worse than when I actually had COVID because I had the vaccine in the first place.
