When I was young I was allergic to eggs and the flu shot was made from eggs so I never got one. In 2000 I worked for a hospital and it was frowned on if we didn't get a flu shot and I had outgrown my allergy for eggs, so I got my first and only one. Soon after I developed the worst flu I had ever had. So, no, I have not gotten a flu shot since 2000 and will never get one. Luckily I haven't had the flu, knock on wood.
