bad idea

i've never had a flu shot and i hope i never will.

you getting a dose of flu in order to make anti bodies against it...

they used to say theres no link between catching colds and exposure to cold...
but now they say that the cold virus or flu gets inhaled into your nose or nasal pasage
and then sits there waiting for its chance...to thrive.

what the cold temperature does ...is to nullify the good bacteria in your nose that fights
the cold and flu bugs....just long enough for it to take hold...
so in essense you dont catch the flu , your exposed to it already....
and then you let your defenses down and it gets a foothold or in this case a "nosehold"
and then multiplies, so cover your nose in real
cold temp's and keep your defense system working is the best idea.
