Many clinics, doctors, and even pharmacies will offer free flu shots. Checking with one's local pharmacy may be the fastest way to obtain a free flu shots. Often times, children, pregnant women, and the elderly may be given priority for these, as well as the economically disadvantaged.
I couldn't be sure
They don't shoot you, and it isn't a 'shot' of a drink, it's a needle in the arm. In the 2009-2010 flu season there was a mist as well as a shot for the vaccination for swine flu. In the 2010-2011 flu season the vaccine for swine flu protection is included in the one vaccination for the seasonal flu.
While a flu shot will not be effective against any active flu symptoms it will protect against the other flu strains contain in the shot. Flu symptoms such as high fevers, upper respiratory problems should be controlled but the flu virus in a shot is a 'dead' non-active virus and should not affect or cause any current virus.
That will only be needed if a new mutation of the swine flu occurs that the current swine flu vaccine isn't able to prevent. In the 2009-2010 flu season in the US two shots were need, the regular seasonal flu shot and the H1N1/09 Swine flu shot. But in the current 2010-2011 flu season in the US, the seasonal flu vaccination contains the vaccine for swine flu in addition to the other varieties of flu that are expected to be circulating. So only one shot is needed this year for protection in the flu season.
Last flu season, 2009-2010, you needed two shots. But this year the seasonal flu shot also protects against swine flu, so, in the US, you only need one flu shot for the 2010-2011 flu season.
I do not know the name of the religion or cult. But there has to be one or more. Not taking flu shot is a way to show that one is superior to others.
the flu shot was as painful as a bee sting.
The flu shot for one
So you don't get the flu.
Yes, you can still get the flu shot. The flu shot should not be gotten if you are currently ill, but if you are on antibiotics, it is OK to get.
You have to wait until your better then you get the flu shot
AnswerNo, not if it is the same exact vaccine, there are no benefits to receiving the same shot twice when you are an adult (children need to get flu vaccines in a series of two vaccinations if they are under 10).Talk to your employer, in situations like this, some employers will give the free flu shot to a spouse or other family member if you ask, or if they can't give it to your household member free, sometimes they will offer it for a discount. This is especially true if they anticipate having left over vaccine after all employees who want the shot have taken theirs.
