Good For You, Very Thoughtful doing it for yourself & Your Parents well-being.
(In 2014 when the Fall Vaccine had a special one for Seniors, I had it. The Side Effects were SO BAD my Internist advised me to stop getting Fall Vaccinations against "the Latest Fall-Flu's. Clearly in 2014 the Vaccine did more harm than probably the Flu would have done.")
So I guess we'd have to say, "We Must Each evaluate our Personal Tolerance for vaccines,, & use our Own Best judgement in getting Fall Flu injections. "

Agreed. Each vaccine contains other chemicals besides the bio agent that stimulates the immune response, some of them boosters to that effect. If they make you ill, then maybe they're not for you.

I took the over 65 flu vac and so did my Mother who was probably about 80 something then.. I was just turned 65.. made us both soo sick.. for a week.. but then we switched back to the regular one and go one every year since just fine..IDK what the difference is.. but she was supersensitive to meds ( she passed July3 at 95) and I'm just like her..so that was our experience.. I pray about it every time that's for sure!!
