Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.

I have never had the flu. I had one flu shot and got bronchitis three times that winter. No shot for me.
It's luck of the draw which virus they choose for the yearly strain and whether it's the one that actually shows up. The first year my company offered free flu shots I got the worst flu of my life - apparently not the one we were vaccinated for. Other years, it seems to have worked.
I still go for it. I think you have to give your immune system something to do now and then or it gets bored and starts looking for something to attack. :rolleyes:
