Waiting a while. May make sense if you are high risk. Will get the flu vaccine shortly.

I'm taking a break forfrom vaccines.
After the COVID bullshit, I no longer trust the medical community. It is sad, but their actions prove to me that this is an amalgamation of totalitarianism and big business, not healthcare.
Add to it the last vaccine I was given prior to COVID was the tetanus/pertussis vaccine, and I had an anaphylactic reaction to it. Big doses of Benadryl and two weeks on steroids, and now I'm told not to do that vaccine again.

I should add, my PCP in an email to MyChart says, “You’re not immune compromised, so it’s not necessary.” Strictly up to me.

I used to dutifully get my flu shot at work, but no more. Screw them all all their useless vaccines. I must be one of many because we got an email this past week basically begging people to sign up for the on site flu shots saying they had lots of time slots available. It used to be a “you snooze, you lose” type thing with those free shots.

Can't speak for the hive, but, I'm generally disinclined to partake of vaccines for whatever covidflumonia is allegedly making the rounds.

Me three.
I used to get the flu shot and honestly still would if I absolutely knew it was only the flu shot. Some may say I'm paranoid and too heavy with the foil hat, but so be it. I no longer trust the "experts".
ETA, I hope a lot of people are taking the same action and hitting big pharma right in their pocketbook!

I'm skipping all vaccines.
RSV is only a mild cold except for certain at-risk groups. I am not in that group, nor are any family members I am in close contact with.
I do not trust pharma nor the government at this point. I have no confidence that any vaccine is not mRNA. I have no confidence that any medication or vaccine is as safe or effective as they claim. I do know that injections have far more in them than just saline and one active ingredient. For me, illnesses which I reasonably expect to be minor if I catch them are preferable to whatever I might get injected with.

RSV? Flu? Covid? For that matter, ANY "vaccine"???
NEVER...NEVER...had a flu shot and I'm not about to start. Like others here, I no longer trust this government/medical industry and I don't trust them to NOT introduce their Covid poison in all the flu shots and ANY shots from now on.
Naw....SCREW THEM!!!

I don't recommend it unless you're in a high risk group or groups for whom getting it could potentially be detrimental or fatal. I personally don't even get the annual "regular" flu shot. I haven't had any but the very mildest symptoms in at least 15 years.

No. I'm not afraid of covidflumonia "vaccines," either. I'm simply unconvinced of their efficacy or safety.

My last flu vaccine was in the Navy. They required it. Never again. I don’t trust any of them at this point.

Yep. At this point I don't trust them. I may trust an individual doctor or two but the system itself is corrupt.
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown
