I just got my second reminder to go and get a flu shot at my GP's clinic. I get them (reminders) every year. As I mentioned in the other vaccine thread, I've had it a couple of times and the first time I had it coincided with a really bad dose of flu. No idea if the there is any causal relationship there, or indeed if the dose of flu I got was less severe than it might have been...I don't really know how this shit works *grins*

My doctor keeps trying to get me to have them because I'm in an 'at risk' category. I am still completely undecided as to whether or not they're a good thing. I just end up having it some years and not having it other years. Didn't get one last year and probably won't this year.
