I don't get the shot either. I am one of those people with a chronic disease that are encouraged to get this shot but I do not. My last Dr. had the syringe out, the vial out and thought he was going to give me the shot without so much as ASKING if I wanted it. He got an earful. I know far too many people who have gotten the shot and gotten terribly sick as a result.
   For years, I have been in the public education system and university system and I am thankful to say that I haven't been sick at all. I wash my hands all the time (NOT the antibacterial soap), take vitamins and do my best to eat a somewhat healthy diet. Handwashing is key.

How about you folks in Scotland? England? How is it there?
