Do You Get Annual Flu Shots?

[Cookiebaker]

I just had a change of heart this week.....we were determined not to get the h1n1 (we don't usuallly get the annual flu shot either).

BUT, we have an h1n1 outbreak in our Church , and I am 10 weeks pregnant. I can't get vax'd until December 11, but DH got his last night, and Lydia will get her's tomorrow...so hopefully with both of them covered it will cut down on the risk of bringing it into the house. In the meanwhile, I am staying very close to home...not even going shopping.....and will stay at home until the outbreak is over (all of our friends are sick).

I think that's a wise decision. IMHO. Why take the chance if you don't have to?

I am not in the select group they are targeting either. I just got the
shot for the regular flu.
