Let me set the scene. Imagine you are at a big health fair and all the different remedies are vying for your attention. Garlic shots here, someone wanting you to sign up for their course there, keto bad breath all over the place. And the ones promising you will loose 50 pounds in a month.
Just a pill. Just a shot. Just $5/month for the first month and then $400/month ever after. They don’t tell you that part, it is in the eensy-beensy fine print.
It is madness.
(cough, cough, social media and the MAHA imbeciles. Led by the dhhs secretary and his madness. hint- don’t go down that path)
Then you hear the clarion call of the barker. “Flu shot! Get your flu shot here!”
You queue up for the flu shot line.
Because not to get your annual flu vaccination against a disease that kills thousands each year, is the madness.
You don’t even need an appointment. All the drugstores and your doctor’s office, and even students at healthcare fairs are clamoring to give you the vaccination.
I can hear the idiots now “Ever time I get the flu shot, I get sick.”
Brah, I can’t understand it for you. Some people do end up with the flu after the flu vaccine. Much later. But the illness is not nearly as bad as it is without the flu vaccine. Especially not nearly as deadly.
Do yourself and your family members and your coworkers and the newborn little baby across the street a favor.
And get the fucking flu shot!
