No, workman's comp will only pay for injuries that were caused by a job or duty you were supposed to complete while at work. A flu shot is something that you chose to do and has nothing to do with work.
What is a simile for flu shot?
the flu shot was as painful as a bee sting.
Is the Swine Flu shot worth getting?

Why get a flu shot?
So you don't get the flu.
You are taking amox-clav can you still get the flu shot?
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.
Should you get the flu shot first or the Swine Flu shot?
In the US in the 2010-2011 flu season: The seasonal flu shot will include the vaccine for H1N1/09, so you won't need a separate shot for the swine flu this year, and you will get all the protection in one vaccination.In the 2009-2010 flu season:It doesn't matter which shot you get first, as far as being protected from both the seasonal flu and the swine flu is concerned, as long as you do get both types of vaccinations. The two vaccines can not be mixed in one shot. You can take both shots on the same day. As of the end of October, 2009 in the US, there is plenty of seasonal flu vaccine available, while the swine flu vaccine is still being reserved for those at highest risk until the production of the vaccine catches up with the demand. You should not wait to get the seasonal flu vaccine until the swine flu vaccine is available to your risk group in your location for best protection against the seasonal flu. Go ahead and get the seasonal flu shot as soon as you can, and then get the H1N1 (swine flu) shot as soon as it is available to you, too.The nasal mist vaccinations for the two types of flu can not be given at the same time. Live 2009 H1N1 vaccine (the type used in the nasal sprays) can be administered at the same visit as any other live or inactivated vaccine EXCEPT seasonal live attenuated influenza vaccine.
How do you get the flu when you already got a flu shot?
There are many different types of flu and the seasonal flu shot only prevents three of the most likely to be circulating flu viruses. So if you happened to get exposed to a type of flu that wasn't in the vaccination, then you could get sick from it.Another reason might be that you caught the flu before you got the flu shot and so there was not time for the shot to work before you got sick.Another reason might be that you got the shot and then were exposed to the flu before your immune system could give you immunity from the vaccination. It takes around two weeks after getting the vaccination for an adult to have full immunity from it. For children under 10, a series of two vaccinations are needed given approximately a month apart, then it takes another few weeks before the body has developed the full immunity, so exposure during any of those time frames before full immunity can cause illness in those children.
Should you get a flu shot with a sinus infection?
You have to wait until your better then you get the flu shot
Is it better to get the seasonal flu vaccine as soon as it is available or wait a little later into the flu season to keep it from wearing off?
The flu shot will not wear off. What it does is make your body immune to that kind of flu if you ever are exposed to it, for the rest of your life. It is better to get the seasonal flu shot as soon as you can so your body will have time to make the needed antibodies that make you immune before the flu arrives in your community this year. You should also plan to get the swine flu vaccine as soon as it is made available to your risk group, the first prioritized groups will hopefully be provided with access to the vaccinations in mid October. Keep alert to the local news briefings to find out when it will be made available to you.
Is the Swine Flu shot really a shot?
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.
Should people that work in a daycare get flu shot?
yes, so you dont get what the kids have or give it to them.
Is it safe to get both the seasonal flu shot and the H1N1-09 virus flu shot?
Yes. In fact, now the seasonal flu shots are combined with the H1N1 Virus flu shot, so you don't have to get two.
