Is it worth it for an adult to get a flu shot?

Lisyonok Dobry
The protective effect of vaccinations persists for at least one year, and after two to three years of consistent vaccination - for two years or more. However, there is one "but" - the flu virus easily mutates, and now there are several of its varieties. The introduced vaccine creates immunity only against one particular species. In addition, a person may well become infected not dominant in this season, but another kind of infection. Which also spreads, albeit in smaller numbers, and is looking for a "victim." Therefore, the effectiveness of vaccination, according to various estimates, does not exceed 50-60%.
Do not forget about the adverse reactions that may occur with the use of vaccines: Local reactions are the most common effects. They are expressed in the form of redness at the injection site. These are short-term events that usually take place within 1-2 days. Nonspecific systemic reactions include fever, chills, malaise and myalgia. Usually occur 6-12 hours after vaccination and last no more than 1-2 days. Hypersensitivity is a rare reaction, which is supposedly allergic in nature.
Serious contraindications for vaccinations are the following:
acute disease;
allergy to chicken protein;
bronchial asthma;
diffuse connective tissue diseases;
adrenal gland diseases;
diseases of the nervous system;
chronic diseases of the lungs and upper respiratory tract;
cardiovascular insufficiency and hypertension II and III stages;
kidney disease;
disease of the endocrine system;
blood diseases
Risk groups: small children and the elderly, as well as patients with chronic cardiovascular and broncho-pulmonary diseases. These patients often exacerbate their chronic diseases: rheumatism, tuberculosis, bronchitis and others. Of course, complications can occur in any other person. But, as a rule, in the event that he does not comply with bed rest and recommendations of a doctor. In order to decide whether or not to be vaccinated against influenza, the first thing to objectively assess the likelihood of infection with the flu is you. If you are at risk and the danger is high enough, you should consider whether there are any possible complications in your case. If they are very likely, go straight to your doctor about whether you can inject a flu vaccine. In the case of a negative answer, you will not have to think about anything. In the case of a positive doctor's answer, weigh all the pros and cons and make a decision.
Well, if you do not belong to the risk group, and complications are unlikely - do not overtake fear. And then you can and "get scared" get sick.

it's your decision. My mother-in-law does every year, says she is less sick. Daughters do at school, sick for the whole school. year about 2-3 times. I never did myself, but if I start to get sick, then the cold usually shows up. I have not yet had the choice to do or not, but I think that I will try, when they offer and compare before and after

I never did, because I think this shit is crap.. Those who at least once did or made it was pleasant to a flu (I about those whom I know)

not worth it

Here the question is ambiguous. If you can know exactly what kind of vaccination. whose production, as in what terms and under what conditions they will do, it certainly stands. Provided that you do not abuse them now and do not feel well. In this state, the vaccine can not be done, and even there are many contraindications, you should explain everything. Because when we get vaccinated, it seems like nothing terrible, made a shot and went, and it's not. When we were with children abroad, we had to get them vaccinated, so they pre-donated a lot of tests, watched us for almost a week, for our well-being, and these vaccinations are of different production, and there are kotorey calculated for 4 doses, that is, as soon as the ampoule is opened, should be immediately used, and not so keep open until the next patient. If you can control all this, then of course it is worth doing, the flu is now such that it is not so scary as the consequences after it ...
Should I get a flu shot from a child?
Answers:
Man - you are Peace, you are Eternity.
Do not, better strengthen the immune system.
Inoculations can not be done, these are the same small diseases. Vaccination-business. Autoimmune diseases are a consequence of early vaccination. Diabetes mellitus type 1 in children under 14 years of age, this is the consequences. Inoculations are 100% healthy. Statistics say that 3% of children are healthy.
There is a list of contraindications, for example, dysbacteriosis is one of them.. .
Vaccines can be preserved with endogenes-mercury and aluminum salts.
Stamens of viruses, bacteria muttiruyut.
It is necessary to strengthen immunity, he himself cope.

Of course not!! !
From generation to generation, the human offspring is weakened because we are vaccinated.
Gala
Do not, get vaccinated against the flu, and no one knows what will be-A, B, etc. Will do from one, and there will be another, and immunity has already been reduced, and the child is even more strongly sick
Nikolay Tesla
I heard that good doctors forbid their children and grandchildren to put them. Ask about this for more details. Vaccinations seem to undermine the health of children, just the state, this requires doctors.
Grigori
If immunity is weak, then the vaccine will become the root cause of infection
If the immunity is strong, then it is not needed
Vaccinations should be made from smallpox, polyemilite and other serious diseases
And from the flu, in my opinion, there is no sense
Olesya
We did the daughter last year - almost 3 months on the sick-list from the day of vaccination - first the classic flu, then twice otitis and bronchitis at the end. and no one will ever convince me to do a child vaccine against the flu.
Tatyana Orlova
no it is not !!!
Marina Babikova
Hello!
It seems to me that it's not worth it. It is better to strengthen immunity.
To my children, I do not vaccinate against the flu, because it can cause complications of all kinds. My brother did 4 years ago a flu shot and lost his sight. He was treated for a very long time, but it was not possible to restore the vision completely.
Karina Solovyova
it is necessary. Vaccination against influenza does not prevent colds, but it helps to avoid the actual flu, complications of which are tonsillitis, pneumonia, otitis, sinusitis, bronchitis and other kaka, not to mention the fact that in general the flu is much more complicated than ARVI, and is very contagious, so it may very well be that the whole family will crawl with a temperature of 40. Do you need this?
So do not only vaccinate the child, but all the rest of the family.

NO. uniquely. vaccination is nonspecific, and even more so to a child.
Svetlana Begerskaya
immunetet should not be strengthened, but restored. Immenos vaccinations kill him. Up to one year 9 vaccinations, 9 small diseases. And then we think, why our children have this and that. I refused all vaccinations, because I have the right to do so. And the hospital is simply losing money, so we are told about the benefits of vaccinations., urge to make a plan for them. Think for yourself. I do not spend more experiments on children ..
Halida Shavkieva
Yes, now I have to think about it or not))))))

No, do not! We are 6 years old and have never been influenced by the flu. And the flu was like everyone else. Only with the hospital man went out to the garden before all. Those who are vaccinated, for some reason, get sick longer.
Alexandra Antipova
On the one hand, like you should do it. On the other, it's dangerous. But we live in the modern world and I do more to prevent infections. Although of course it is now difficult, that it does not catch. I myself, for example, bought the Barrier Reef. Though the husband also was against. And I liked it. And the effect is.
Vaccination against influenza: contraindications. Do I need a flu vaccine?
Seasonal flu is a disease that affects millions of citizens annually. The most favorable time for the disease is autumn and winter, when human immunity is weakened and can not cope with viruses so effectively. Different strains of viruses can cause the development of an acute respiratory disease, but, despite the nature of the pathogen, the symptoms are very similar in all cases. The patient has a fever, a sore throat, a cold, a cough and a headache.
Inoculation against influenza
To prevent the onset of many infectious diseases, vaccination is given. After the opening of the first vaccine, doctors saved hundreds of millions of lives. Against the flu every year, millions of people are vaccinated, because the vaccine is today considered to be the main preventive method in the fight against infections.
Sometimes potential patients have a question: do I need a flu vaccine? The vaccine is a weakened viral material that can not reproduce in the body. When a vaccine material is introduced to a person whose set of proteins is identical to the active virus, his immune system starts producing antibodies against the virus.
Time for vaccination
To be vaccinated against the flu is best in the fall (from September to November), because the epidemic of the disease at this time is becoming a massive one. Inflammation is administered to children and adults. It is not recommended to vaccinate the vaccine in the spring or summer, as the amount of antibodies decreases with time, and the effect from it is not so strong.
You can get a vaccine against the flu even after the epidemic begins. If the vaccination was carried out and the next day the person was infected, the vaccine will not worsen the course of the disease. Much worse the flu will leak if such vaccinations are not done, even there is a risk of serious complications.
Who needs an inoculation
To date, inoculations are already done by infants from 6 months of age. There is a category of people who need a vaccination against the flu in the first place. In the high-risk zone, there are elderly people, patients who are on inpatient treatment, pregnant women. It is necessary to vaccinate children and adolescents (from 6 months to 18 years), especially if they have been using aspirin for a long time for the purpose of treatment. Such patients may have severe complications after the flu. This category includes people with kidney, lung, heart problems, metabolic disorders, patients with immunodeficiency, with hemoglobulinopathies, with staphylococcal infection, as well as students and schoolchildren, who are constantly in the community.
Vaccination against influenza: contraindications
The main material for the manufacture of the vaccine is chicken embryos. Not every organism is susceptible to them, and there are a number of cases when a flu vaccine is not recommended. Contraindications are primarily to those patients who suffer from an allergic reaction to chicken protein. It is not necessary to vaccinate people during the period of exacerbation of chronic diseases. Vaccination is undesirable for two weeks after the final recovery, because the body is weakened and may react incorrectly.
It is not necessary to inoculate patients with progressive forms of neurological diseases, as well as with an allergy to influenza vaccines.
What is the flu?
The disease belongs to the category of acute viral infections, is accompanied by a general infectious syndrome in severe form and affects the respiratory tract. Not all patients realize the full danger of this disease. In some cases, the flu begins with a cough, fever and a runny nose, and can end with the death of the patient. Statistics show that annually about 40 thousand people from developed countries die from the flu and complications caused by it.
Types of the causative agent of influenza
The causative agent of the virus is divided into three independent types: A, B and C. The constant mutation of the virus, which leads to a change in its antigenic structure, leads to the fact that qualitatively new varieties of the influenza virus actively appear and multiply. The danger for the population is that the immunity to them in the human body has not yet developed, so the virus affects the patient and can cause unpredictable complications. The transmission of the influenza virus from a sick person is carried out by airborne droplets, which allows it to spread to all categories of the population.
Influenza A type instantly spreads over vast areas and is pandemic or epidemic in nature. Local spread of the influenza B virus type allows recording its individual outbreaks and taking timely measures. Sporadic outbreaks of infections cause influenza type C.
Benefits of Inoculation
The vaccine helps the body develop a permanent immunity, which will help to avoid getting infected with the flu. If even a vaccinated person has taken up an infection, then the disease goes on without complications and in a lighter form than those who refused to vaccinate. Specific prophylaxis is carried out by live and inactivated vaccines. The vaccine against influenza for children over three years old is of domestic origin. Imported vaccines, which have all the necessary licenses, are intended for children between the ages of 6 to 12 months.
The maximum amount of antibody is reached 14 days after vaccination. The annual vaccination is explained by the fact that the vaccine provides the body with short-term immunity (6-12 months). Vaccination should be carried out before and during the epidemic season.
Vaccines against influenza
Vaccines aimed at fighting the flu are divided into several types. The first is live vaccines. They are made from strains of the virus that are safe for humans. With intranasal administration, they contribute to the development of local immunity. Vaccination before the beginning of the epidemic period. Live vaccines vary depending on who they are intended for - children or adults.
People who are older than 7 years are assigned inactivated vaccines. It is a concentrated and purified influenza virus, grown on chick embryos and inactivated by UV radiation and formalin. Inactivated vaccines include flu-like liquid chromatographic, centrifugal and eluate-centrifugal.
Subunit and split vaccines have domestic and imported varieties. These include drugs such as Grippol, Agrippal, Begrivac, Vaxigrip, Inffluvac, Fluarix.
Refusal of vaccination
Increasingly, people refuse to vaccinate. This is explained by the fact that often after vaccination against influenza, unwanted reactions of the organism to the material occur. Illiterate introduction, poor quality of the vaccine or non-compliance with the rules after vaccination leads to complications. Another reason for not taking vaccinations is that parents think this is harmful to the health of their child.
Refuse can be from all vaccinations or from some specific. Refusal to vaccinate against influenza should be argued and notified about this decision of employees of the polyclinic.
There are a number of cases when medical workers confirm that it is undesirable to vaccinate against influenza. Contraindications relate primarily to the health of the child, when he suffered a trauma or is ill. But after the state of the baby is normalized, the vaccine still has to be done.
To refuse the vaccination, you must write a special application in two copies (one for yourself, and the second for a school, kindergarten or polyclinic). The application must be registered in the institution's documents journal, it must contain: a deciphered signature, a number, a document number, a seal. It is also worth remembering that the refusal of vaccinations is a decision to take responsibility for the diseases against which vaccination is carried out.
Consequences of refusal of vaccinations
Not always refusing to vaccinate the flu (sample - below) is the right decision by the parents. Preventive vaccinations are protected by law, and their absence makes life difficult for citizens. Thus, they are prohibited from traveling to countries that require specific vaccinations. Citizens may be temporarily denied admission to health or educational institutions, especially if there is a threat of epidemics or infectious diseases. In the absence of the necessary vaccinations, citizens have problems in hiring, where there is a risk of contracting infectious diseases. In other words, non-vaccinated children and adults are not allowed into the collective if there are suspicions of an epidemic.
Effects of flu vaccination
Vaccination against influenza, contraindications to which have already been thoroughly studied, may also negatively affect human health. It is about the occurrence of side effects. Before you do the vaccination, you need to go through the examination and consult with your doctor. The maximum caution should be exercised in the case of vaccination of children, pregnant women and elderly people. Vaccination does not save from all diseases (in this case from influenza) at all, but it at times reduces the possibility of infection. Untimely vaccination can lead to flu. But even then, the disease will be much easier to transfer than by giving up the vaccine.
After vaccination, allergic reactions and chronic illnesses can become aggravated. To avoid this, you need to warn the doctor about their availability. Children should be vaccinated only healthy, because even a slight runny nose during vaccination can turn into a child's insomnia, loss of concentration and reduced immunity. Also, you must follow the rules of care for the vaccination, in order to avoid local problems on the skin. If the organism somehow reacted to previous vaccinations, then the following should be abandoned.

Should I get a flu shot? A child in school tomorrow put "Grippol-plus"? (12 years)
Answers:
Aleksandra Menyasheva
you know, kaza, I have aunt doctor, and so, she says it's not worth it. Moreover, she said that she would not be vaccinated against her children by her children. the virus constantly mutates, even within a single wave of diseases, and at such a difficult time for the body, when it is cold, when it shortens a sunny day (this is a great stress), when the body is especially vulnerable - it's just foolish to subject it to such tests. it is better to get sick once with your immunity, than because of the introduction of artificial substance in half with foreign harmful, though weakened, bodies, to fall with temperature due to the slightest hypothermia. after gynecology this happens often. some people have an allergy to chicken protein, this is also dangerous, because the vaccine is made based on it. producers on the fear of people for their health earn big money, artificially inflating the hype. in fact, this thing is not so necessary. rather, it is the placebo effect.
bear in mind, I'm not talking about vaccinations in the whole, namely about vaccines against the flu.

After reading in Wikipedia, I got an 8-year-old son from the vaccine:
In matayanalysis, the effectiveness and effectiveness of killed vaccines were studied in adults, children and the elderly. Adult vaccines showed high efficacy against selected strains of the virus, but overall low effectiveness, so that the benefit from vaccination was small, one-fourth decreased the risk of contracting the flu, but the lack of effect in the frequency of hospitalization. On children, vaccines again showed high efficacy, but low effectiveness in preventing "influenza-like illness ", data on children under two years are very limited, but it seems that the vaccination did not give measurable benefits.

Judge for yourself:
The flu virus is strong enough and often mutates. There are viruses A. AT.... A bunch of eating flu viruses. The vaccine against influenza viruses was developed only recently. In order for the drug to be launched into mass production, it is necessary to conduct clinical tests of not less than , -2 years and tracing of subjects for 5 years, after application of the drug. Only then the medicine is considered fully tested and can be applied in large numbers. And when did we get the vaccine from the flu? And from which one? Will the vaccine be effective for other types of influenza virus?
So you decide - you need to vaccinate your child? Or is it better to strengthen his immune system?

your child's health is in your hands, but when you do the inoculation, you enter the virus into the body and most often the body fights him, ie, the child is sick. And then the question arises why it is artificial to cause illness... .

I'm far from a child, but last year after "Grippol" fell for two weeks. And in the winter I got flu. And when I was not vaccinated, I was not ill for more than 10 years, although my work requires constant communication with a large number of people.

No. We also doubted and asked the teachers, they say that after the vaccinations all the children fell ill, they do not do to their children, they wrote a refusal, they began to observe, indeed, almost all the children after the vaccination in the garden were not, in addition, they were ill with the flu at least other children, so this vaccine was never done.
