This is the first year I gave up and had the flu shot. I know that this winters flu is really bad, but I'm now told that the flu shot only protects you from one strain of flu. Okay fine, but what strain? How many strains are there now? I'm also told I can still get the stomach flu or cold. Okay fine, so what does it protect me from?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26795288 The first run of vaccine is a best guess for what happened 'last year' the second run is the 'what's happening' in the 'East' 6 months ago, the third run is the what have we got in the US 'now'. Discovery of a specific flu virus to vaccine distribution is 6-9 months!!!
