Nothing to see here... or hear here... move along :)   Definitely right
though, nothing is perfect, and not every human body is the same... so
efficacy is variable... hopefully working more often than not.

To be honest I've never had much faith in flu vaccines for that reason. There
has long be cases of the flu backing the wrong horse and being virtually
usless for the season that arrives... However given some other issues it
didn't seem to have any real downside.

It seemed somewhat ironic to me, that the first time I ever have the current
flu vax I end up sick as a dog for a couple of weeks followed by a quick
break and then have another go at it.
