No, I sure don't take flu shots. I use homeopathic remedies for illness for myself and family. A good homeopath can cure what ails you without side effects. You can fairly easily educate yourself into how to use basic remedies for home care of common illnesses, if you have the right books. Look into how immunizations are made and flu shots in particular. That was enough to stop me from ever wanting one. Tell your doctor you are allergic to eggs and he/she'll stop bugging you about getting them (if that's what you want, of course)...,.Linda Hi.
