Do annual flu shots work?!


Question: Do annual flu shots work!?
Answers:
Yes they do!. However, it can be hard to researchers to keep up with all the different, mutated strains of the flu!. Last years flu vaccine was only effective to a certain point because there were more types of flu!. They are constantly mutating and doctors and researchers try to keep up with them all!. This years flu vaccine should prove to be very effective from what I have read and heard!. The flu vaccine does not actually prevent the flu, but if you have a flu shot and get the flu, it will most likely be a very light case of it without complications and you will feel better sooner than you may have without the shot!. The CDC recommends that kids under 6, those 60 and over, people that work in the health care field or work around a lot of people, and those with any chronic illness get the flu vaccine every year!. Contrary to what many people think, the flu shot does not make you sick when you get it!. If you get a flu shot and get sick a few days to a week later, don't blame it on the shot!. You were already getting sick!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You do not get the flu from getting the flu shot!. The vaccine is created from dead or inactivated virus!. Unless you are sick at the time of vaccination or you are allergic to eggs, you should not experience symptoms!. You can still get the flue but it will be weakened by the shot so it wont be as bad as it would have been otherwise!. Also, there are many other viruses out there that have symptoms just like the flue but are not the flue (this is why people think they get the flue from the flue shot when in fact there are many other viruses you can get out there!.) One of the main reasons for the flue shot is so people do not get complications and die from them!. That is why they encourage young children and old people to get the shot!. But you can still get the flue but it will lessen your chances!. Drinking lots of water and getting enough sleep, not eating too much sugar also help your immune system fight infection!. Also, they try to predict which strain of flue will be out each year and sometimes their predictions are more accurate than others!. That just means that it is more effective some years then others!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes and No!. They only work against existing strains of the flu!. If the flu mutates during the season (which almost always happens) then you're still at risk for contracting the flu!. However, getting the flu shot does prep your system for battling the flu so your immune system has a better chance of fighting it off!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes!. I have had one every year, and have not had the flu in over 25 years!. Allergy to eggs or anything else in the shot is the only reason to not get the shot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

of course they do, however, there are many strains of the flu and the drug makers do their best to determine which strains will be common during the next year but its better to get one then just play riskyWww@Answer-Health@Com

It doesn't matter where they give you the shot, the vaccine is the same either way!. The only thing they have ever done for me is to make me sick, whether I got them in the arm or the posterior!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

im not entirely sure but my nan has them every year and she has never had the flu!. it probably varies with your body though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Getting shots for years!. Not getting flu for years!.
Think there's a connection!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, most definitely!. Go get one!. I have gotten one every year for at least 10 years!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
