Feel free to enjoy the medical protection method of your choice. I do. I laugh every year when I see those "Get your flu shots!" posters on the Toronto Transit vehicles.

Uh..huh...right.

I have not gotten a flu shot in the last 30 or so years. And I haven't had the flu either in the last 30 or so years!

My mother got a bunch of shots before going to Pakistan in the 70's. She got sick from the shots. Seriously sick. Her health was never that good again, not due to Pakistan...due to the shots.

Like I said, if you want 'em get 'em. Fine with me.

My method for good health is simple: Eat good food, but don't overeat. Exercise. Get enough fresh air and sunshine. Drink fresh, pure water. Don't drink alcohol, eat junk food, or smoke. Don't take illegal drugs. Don't take legal drugs. Don't take stomach pills, antacids, or drugs that affect your bowels. Don't get shots. Think positive thoughts, and dispense with habitual negative emotional habits such as hatred, bitterness, anger, envy, self-pity, guilt, shame, and fear. Love yourself, respect others, love life.

Do all of the above and I suggest that you will probably not need very many shots at all...if any.

But like I said, your own path in Life is your own choice, so make it as you see fit and enjoy it as suits you, and I'll do likewise.
