I got the hn1n1 flu shot and does it stop it or what happens if i get it how would i know if i got it i went to a car show there were a lot of people?

Reaction: The flu shot may cause mild flu like symptoms. The shot is about 65% effective so you can still contract the flu. New symptoms would suggest an infection and not a continuing reaction to the shot.
