The 1918 Spanish Flu was fueled by global transport of soldiers from Europe to the US. I know so many folks who travel all over, which would probably bring pandemics if it weren't for vaccines. |

I've had anaphylactic shock from a previously unknown food allergy ( Shrimp, Lobster and Crab) and nearly died.. My reaction to the flu shot was milder... Hives from head to toe... I'm not allergic to eggs & eat them regularly. Never had any issues with Latex either.
I am allergic to all variations of penicillin and any medication that contains any sulphur. My guess is that there's something in the "special sauce" for flu shots that cause my allergic reactions. Quote:

My wife and I have been talking about getting the flu shot for about two weeks. This morning I mentioned it and being that she is on vacation, we took a drive to our local pharmacy and pulled up our shirt sleeves. The worse part of the process was getting signed in which in was reality quick and easy and consisted of completing a general health history form. The complete process for the two of us was less than 30 minutes. Our daughter is a nurse and she is around many people daily at the hospital, so we felt it wise for us to do all we can to get out in front of a potential illness.

My doctor says if I get pneumonia it will likely kill me. So I take precautions. For example I never take public transit without wearing gloves, ever.
