This is the New Obamacare and this is how you pay for it. Pan Handle for coverage, because that's how you are going to pay for it.

Yeah the flu shot is a scam! I think my family had been sick more this year then they have the past 3. This year us the first time we got flu shots...i swear they just lower your immunity so you spend more money at the Dr and on medicines! Just saying.

The fact is there are 4 strands of the flu out there. The flu shot covers 3 of the strains and it's only a 60% rate of lessening the severity of the flu, not prevention. The flu shot needs 2 weeks before it's effective (which a lot of people get sick before that time).
The key to not getting sick is hand washing & stop touching face/eyes. Keep disinfectant wipes on your desk, counter, bathroom etc. Wipe down every surface daily. Especially handles, fridge, door, pantry, toilet handle, light switches and don't forget those germ infested remote controls and phones.
