I'm not sure yet...I have never gotten a flu shot. The swine flu usually hits younger people hard, and I'm middle-aged. But I drive the inlaws around, and I don't want to get them sick if I'm a carrier.
My mom's dad died in 1918 from swine flu. It was weak in the spring, just like this one, and came back much stronger in the fall. That's what's expected this time around.
I just heard yesterday that humans have passed the virus on to turkeys in another country...it's not very common for us to pass viruses onto animals.
I have a feeling that this fall is going to be interesting where this is concerned...guess we should all be aware and listen to our docs.
