yes theraflu may RELIEVE your symtpoms temporarily but does nothing to aid ridding your body of the flu virus.
i don't know if the manufacturers do it on purpose, but that stuff tastes totally disgusting. maybe they are trying to make it taste mediciney so people think it is effective. having the flu is more enjoybable than drinking that sh*t.

Y Lifter a lot of the posters on this thread are younger guys who think they will never get the flu. i did not get it till i was 35 so it may be true you are more likely to catch it as you get older.
the "experts" say it is very possible we will see a major flu pandemic in the next ten years that has the potential to kill millions. that is how serious the flu can be. it is more than a bad cold.
my brother in law said his great grandparents were killed by the major flu outbreak of 1919-1920. apparantly this can still happen. the shot may prevent the flu but there is still no cure.

theres nothing wrong with getting a flu shot. in fact, for most people, its a great idea
most flu shots you will see on the market are not attenuated/whole virii, they are ripped up antigens so theres no chance of backwards infection. if you can afford it and are prone then why not
i wont be getting a shot just now since im not working (in my line of work it really is the front line for any infection) and im currently in the throes of a flu- sore throat, muscle aches, lethargy, lightheadedness, headache
it sucks balls i must say. havnt had anything like this in a while

more correctly, the shot may prevent some or a strain of the flu, but not all. There are multiple strains out there.

the word "flu" is thrown around so much these days that people have become desensitized to how serious it is. when people get mild food poisining they call it the "stomach flu." when people get a bad cold they often mistakenly call it the flu. even people on this board call the flu LIKE symptoms from test the "test flu."
the true flu is when you are infected with the influenza virus. anyone who has had it knows how incredibly sick you get.

I guess it's here...the flu... and everyone's sick around here. Thank God I got my shot, I still feel weak and have a chest congestion, but not as bad as it would have been. Was nice to lay around the house all day for once.
