Hail DeeBye,
I guess it becomes a problem when you have a lot of people living in very close proximity. I seem to remeber that you're from Canada, where that may not be that much of a problem, but think, for example, Japan.
Agreed, the Japanese may have a tendency to overdo some things, but with people living in such close proximity there, especially when commuting to work, flu shots do seem to have an advantage. Otherwise, it would spread around rather quickly among a lot of people, and half of Japan would be ill during flu season...
Agreed, I don't think a flu is that bad, but if you run the risk of spreading it around to people who might have a different opinion of that, a flu shot is worth a thought.
Well, just my two cents!
Take care,
Lord_Olf
