I think I'll actually go and get the flu shot this year - I've held out long enough. It's supposed to help protect me from SARS too, and really, I don't want to get sick (from the flu or SARS) and potentially pass it on to the people around me, especially my friends and family.
I would explain my past stubbornness, but it would take too long (and no, I am not afraid of needles). Just know this: getting the flu shot doesn't mean that you're 100% safe - it just protects you from the strains all the health people think will hit us this flu season. That virus mutates like crazy, so the doctors and the scientists at WHO (even though they do the best they can) can't always predict what's going to happen. Scary, no?
