A nurse is coming into my office to do these next week. I thought they only gave them free to high risk groups. Seems odd to me.
Anyone else getting offered this at work?
Don't think I will bother.

My work does the same.
Never taken them up on the offer but then I've never had flu so don't really appreciate how bad it can be for some.

I'd probably take it but then I really get off on needles/injections.

I've had flu once before and it didn't kill me. Sinisitus is just as bad.

I had my flu jab on Monday along with the pnumonia jab as precation against my illness.
It is usually given to those with low immune systems and high risk of death if you contract the flu.
I had no side effects of either and if it works (which it does) go for it.
