A few years ago I started getting it because of my father's weakened immune system. The way I see it, there are no negatives to getting it, but there are plenty of potential negatives if you don't.
I used to get it... My ex wife was in healthcare and we ended up socializing with a lot of Her doctor friends and they made a pretty good case for not getting them. I don't have any real medical background or knowledge here, I do know to listen when I hear several experts talking about how it's not necessary. Unless your young, old, or weakened immune system.
the flu won't kill me, so I don't see the point getting a shot. If I was teaching still i would so I didn't have to miss any work.
