My thought exactly. I've always known they use strains of viruses to make vaccines. I, myself cannot get a flu vaccine without getting the flu for the next year. I haven't had a flu vaccine in ten or twelve years and may have gotten the flu twice or three times in all that time. (I don't get sick often). Vaccines are a double-edged sword. They serve a great purpose in the human and animal worlds, but first they are overdone, and second they are not good for all recipients. And the FDA and insurance companies and sadly, vets and doctors too, are about making money on the public's ignorance of what they are receiving. It is, unfortunately, the world we live in. All we can do is educate ourselves and try to increase public awareness.
