And when the first kid dies from the vaccine, the Government will jump in and help bankrupt the manufacturer of the vaccine.

I watch people get sick every year after getting a flu shot. My ex’s grandfather played golf the day he got the shot, in the hospital the next day, in the ground by weekend.

I’ll take my chances with the REAL bug.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You’re not giving me enough information here, but I am thinking:

1) He was infected by a virus not covered in the flu shot, and it was a coincidence that it occurred on the same day.

2) He WAS covered but was infected the same day as the flu shot and did not have enough time to develop antibodies against it.

3) He may have died from something other than the flu. It may have started as a simple cold virus that later became a bacterial pneumonia.

By the way, I did not get a flu shot this year and I am over 60.

Something else did him in not the flu shot. Years ago the flu shot contained a live virus and you DID get a small case of the flu. That is no longer the case, the flu vaccine contains a killed virus and you cannot get sick from it. You can catch something else, other flu strains not included in the vaccine, from other sources. Sorry about your loss but you need to stop spreading these false stories. People die everyday from complications of the flu. Flu shots help to keep that from happening.
