Walgreens pushing flu vaccines hard!!
Went to Walgreens pharmacy, 1st thing the tech asks """are you here to get your flu vaccine shot???"""" It was obnoxious, 2 weeks ago it was towards the end at check when they asked if I wanted one.


Why are they pushing the shot? Seems to me, they would want more people sick so they get more business. What gives?

They just want to make sure you get your yearly dose of mercury.

Never ever ever get a flu shot, my first four years of military service I got them under orders and was severly sick each time shortly there after. I then for the last eighteen years avoided them and have only had an occasional cold. Fucking government sucks!

I stopped in Rite Aid for a gallon of milk and over the intercom they were saying the pharmacist was standing by to give flu shots on the spot...it was a recording playing on a loop.

They really gear up on this from time to time. I told them once that if they asked me that again, I would halt my business there.

Then one time I asked the tech for an ingredient list or if she could tell me what is in the shots and/or for the written content of the vaccines. She left and came back with some sales brochure. I just said this isn't it and left.

I'm just waiting for some pharmacist to ask me if I want my flu shot? I won't respond in a very kind manner.

Re: Walgreens pushing flu vaccines hard!!
My ex got a flu shot last week...within 6 hours she was in ER. Face and neck - throat swelled up and she couldn't breathe or see... They treated her with an unknown antibiotic....scared the crap out her - thought she was going to die....luckily hospital was 3 mi away....don't ever get a Gov vac or shot of any kind.

I love how they always ask if you want "your" flu shot, as if it has your name on it.

I haven't had the flu in years. Grace and/or it's true about that hand washing frequently, wipe off the grocery carts with those wipes they provide and just generally be a germaphobe like me. haha
