In middle age I had the flu for seven consecutive years, and serious
cases too. Being the ultra-fast thinker that I am, I had an idea:
"What if I get a flu shot?". In the more than a quarter century
since then I've had no serious cases of the flu, and only a very
few mild ones.
I remember some bad bouts of flu over the years, but none since 1995.
Free flu jabs on the NHS weren't available till about ten years ago.
Also, I'm told that the virus mutates so much, it's a matter of luck
whether that year's vaccine will work on that year's virus.
