I think it's prudent to get the flu shot. It protects against the virus strain that is prevalent for that year. It builds up your body's immunity to the flu.

My experience is that it may not prevent the flu totally but it keeps you from suffering and you are able to get through the day without severe symptons.
I have great success with the flu shot but some people don't believe in getting it.
