As far as putting people on the defensive for not getting the vaccine, I don't think that's right at all. The vaccine is available now and it should be up to the individual whether or not to get it. There are people who have weighed the risks, pros and cons of getting the vaccine and have opted to either get it or not to do so. It's not up to me to second guess their personal health decision either way.

Totally agree. It was a difficult decision for me to get the vaccination, considering the fact that I haven't had the flu shot in 50 years and never had the flu. I sincerely hope I made the right decision, based on available information and that I will not regret it later. Oh well, I think I still have about 20 years left, so if any repercussions occur after 21 years, I'm satisfied. I support getting vaccinated, but I also understand anyone being afraid to submit themselves to a gov. endorsed foreign substance injected into their bodies. My best advice (two cents worth) is to do diligent research and then weigh the odds of gaining protection for yourself and family, over the chance of deadly side effects. The second, not being proven to be a substantial risk---yet. I made a personal choice weighed heavily upon protecting my spouse. I do not demand others follow suit.
