What's this?

So basically you had the same symptoms “most” people get when they catch it

The worse case of the flu I ever had was in 1988 - sophomore year at VT. First time I’d been really sick away from home & nobody to help take care of me.

Anyways....about 1 week prior I got a flu shot on campus. I swore for years the shot gave me the flu. I’ve since been told by more than one dr that was impossible, that I either already had it or caught it despite the vaccine.

Did they tell you the vaccine can make you sick?

I don't think you understand how the flu shot works. -- vthokieq 10/16/2020 1:17PM

Yes. I do understand. I “used” to think it caused my 1988 flu. -- two91hokies 10/16/2020 1:30PM
