My Doctor hates it when she asks me to get a flu shot and I say I don't believe in it. I know one of these years the flu is going to knock me on my can, but the last 20 years or so, not so much.Cedarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15084468926734824846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518800171649154035.post-16037234228497889922009-10-28T17:51:02.021-07:002009-10-28T17:51:02.021-07:00I don't take flu shots myself after a particul...I don't take flu shots myself after a particularly unpleasant experience many years ago.

You know, I'm not certain about the vaccine either, but right now it's a moot point as it isn't available in my area for anyone outside of the high risk group :-) <br /><br />The funny thing is that this outbreak really doesn't seem all that different from most cold and flu seasons. Wherever I go, people are horking up a lung or two, as per usual when the winter starts to set in.Land of shimphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671954452597068904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518800171649154035.post-37867337077917180002009-10-28T10:36:59.957-07:002009-10-28T10:36:59.957-07:00It's hitting hard around Metro Van for sure.

There was a doctor on recently and she kept using the term H1N1 and Lauer kept saying swine flu -- almost as if he could not use the term enough! Heh!<br /><br />Here in Iowa the term swine flu is pretty much taboo - though I do hear it used by people but never on TV or the radio. <br /><br />It makes no difference to me. Sort of like Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas. But I know it is an extremely sensitive term here in Iowa -- the #1 hog producing state in the country!
