I get a flu shot every year and have since about 2003. And pneumonia vaccines as they expire. I am on my second there. It's an easy way to avoid risk. To me it's in the same category as putting oil in the car. Sure, maybe the oil has sand in it. But probably not. Are the odds better without the oil? Probably not.
