I'm wondering how many people here get flu shots?

I've never had one. I'll probably start getting them when I'm 60 something. As a general rule i don't believe in medicating against the minor inconveniences of life. Which is why I've had the Hep B vax but not the flu vax.

If I lose three days off work because I have the flu, that's $750 down the toilet. That's a pretty serious kick in the stones, a lot more than a minor inconvenience.
Of course, some right-wing wanker living off inherited money and never needing to work except out of boredom wouldn't know what that's like.

Or maybe he just gets sick pay if he's sick.
I've never had a flu shot either. In the UK they're subsidized for high risk people but anyone else has to pay for it themselves, presumably because giving a healthy 20-/30-/40-something a flu shot is considered a waste of public resources.

I’ve never had the flu shot. Never felt the need.
I only get three sick days a year. They can roll over; I don’t remember if the cap out at 5 or 7. I rarely use them. Because of COVID I also have the option of working from home now.
I want to drink, but I’m too lazy to get up. I’m sat with my dog who underwent major knee surgery Tuesday, and don’t want to bother her.

I love dogs, brilliant creatures but they don't have knees. They are called stifle joints. And get your husband to get you a drink or is he too busy browsing the African orphans catalogue?

I suspect doctors would use "synovial joint" if they were talking about a human with other health care workers.
Normal people would probably just say knee, avoiding a long explaination that would eventually be met with, "Oh, she had knee surgery."

Don't know why you thought I was talking about you KB. Pretty obvious I was responding to saxis.
You seem to have a short fuse lately. Maybe find some Rastafarian friends to chill you out.

I think your perspective of the lives of right wing wankers must be based on a cartoon you saw.

I’ve known a few people who’ve had shingles, definitely don’t want that shit.
Don’t worry about ram, he’s almost certainly dealing with Kallmann Syndrome. Hopefully he can get it diagnosed and begin treatment.

There's another thing we call it.
It's called being a cynical asshole.
Rams got a room temperature IQ anyways, better to just ignore him.

My goodness, you seriously need to get over to my putang for beginners thread. Maybe you're beyond help though as I've never seen a bloke so easily offended, uptight and take themselves so seriously. Please don't post though, but you’re welcome to lurk in the shadows with jimcel.
