Well, I went with my daughter in law to get a covid test so she could fly to Hawaii without doing the 14 day quarantine. They had "free" flu shots too through our mutual insurance provider. Since I am around my 83 year old mother, I have been getting flu shots... so I got one Wednesday. Arm was sore, today is all better, no other side effects.
I doubt the shot will mesh with the flu that may or may not break out this year, but I do think it give immunity toward one that may match in the future.
I have not had the flu since 2000 or 2003, can't remember... but I really can't afford for my mom to get it, or to miss work. She got her shot a while back.
Just thought I would say, no side effects... all that hair growing on my back is a little odd though!
