Flu shot or not? is there any situation in which you would recommend not getting a flu shot?

Systemic reaction : If you have had a systemic (dramatic) allergic reaction to eggs or a prior flu vaccine i would avoid the vaccine in the future. This does not include having minor skin rash or discomfort with eggs or a past flu shot.

FLU shot is good.: Influenza vaccine is contraindicated in infants less than 6 months old, if you have a high fever, a moderate to severe acute illness, or if you have had a past severe allergic reaction to the vaccine.
