MawB. Thank you. I was a nurse and have seen people die as a result of flu. I have been having the jab for.many, many years. I did not want to infect any of my vulnerable patients, Nor, as an asthmatic myself, did I want someone infecting me.People can be carriers without realising it.
Eloethan Yes, flu is unpleasant -unpleasant enough to have killed more people in the 1918 epidemic than had died during the whole of WW1.
The only reason we do not have countless deaths from flu now is because so many people are getting the flu jab every year.
Of course, there are the occasional reactions from the injection, just as some people react to certain foods but the injection does not cause flu.
