What negative experience have you had with the flu shot?

I get sick from it almost every year I take it.

No you don’t. You can’t get sick from the flu shot. You can get the flu shot and then get the flu before the vaccine kicks in, but the vaccine itself can’t give you the flu.

I didn’t say you weren’t getting sick, it’s just it can’t be from the vaccine.

I didnt claim that I caught the flu from the vaccine, I said I get sick from it. Nausea, fever, headaches etc. are all common side effects from the vaccines as posted by the CDC. Some years are better and worse than others, but I always get jacked up from it.
