Whew, this is what's up. Yes? No? Kidding.
FLU SHOTS
DO NOT BE ALARMED! i am just asking questions.. to a wanted answer.. it's just a JOURNAL ENTRY.

i am UNSURE; however, plan to FIND OUT!


hmm.. my friend told me that they make you sick, flu shots.


is there logic behind this?


CAN ANYBODY TELL ME WHAT A FLU SHOT DOES?


uhh.. it would make sense if it was a GERM-FILLED SHOT:

1. the shot is injected
2. healthy immune systems fight it, meaning they are ready
3. however, even healthy immune systems can still lose the battle
4. unhealthy/healthy immune systems can't fight and you get sick
5. later, you develop cells that fight the flu
6. you are ready for flu season


this has logic to it. it makes sense.. even healthy immune systems have a small chance of still letting you down, and you just end up sick.


but can it kill you?

i heard they can.. and have.



i took a flu shot recently, 2 days ago; filled a form of any known conditions that i had.
i'm guessing that those allergic to any of them, would require special flu shots..?
i have no clue.



in the end.. my friend refuses to take any shots.


people say it's to fight the flu people pass around from getting sick "normally."
which basically is getting the flu from the air, or standing in the cold too long.. etcetera.


so, what do you think?

cuz i'm just basically talking to myself obviously... T.T
