I am 71 and have never gotten a flu shot. I have also never gotten the flu. Watching people stand in line for the Swine Flu vaccine and then dropping over dead really made an impression on me when in my 20’s. But most young people probably dont’t know about that disaster.
I'm 50 and have never had a flu vaccination. I've had the flu a couple times but so what. I'll take getting sick and gamble on my immune system doing what it does. I'm not injecting anything into this body except pure MAGA.
That's completely anecdotal and practically worthless from a data and a statistics standpoint.
Flu vaccines tend to improve overall resistance to the disease in most cases, usually making symptoms much less severe or preventing it all together.
Depends what exact mix they use as it evolves so damn much, sometimes they're more right in some years than others. But you'd have to be an idiot to think that vaccines never work.

55 here...same, never had the vaccine and never had the flu.
I would argue that's an example of rushed testing and approval.
Almost every current vaccine doesn't have those risks, especially the flu shot.
