I never had the flu in my entire life either, and I always get the flu shot each season. I am much older than you.

You may either be; super-lucky, do not attend regular school or social events, or have not noticed that you were infected at times.

A very rare segment of the population are naturally immune to the flu, but this is less than 0.001% and predominately Asian.

The flu always peaks in North American around October and then again in February. South America is the last region to peak with the flu, which is around April/May.

I have a degree and work in health care.



You just have a very strong immune system xD I haven't had many flu shots either..only like...3 I think... Yeah, they're not that big of a deal if you're a strong person. But if your body is weak, then of course they can cause more damage.

You have a good immune system. I have never had my flu shot and not had many of my immunizations. Because of this my body has learned to better fight off diseases like the flu.



No and that means you are very healthy congrats. Either yhat or your abnormal (no offence). Call a doctor :/



It is normal that you never had the flu in your case of school and friends my cuisine had the flu when she was 16
