Can I get the flu if I had a flu shot?
While the flu shot doesn't always provide total protection, it's still worth getting. As to the Swine Flu, reports are that the flu shot that many received this year is ineffective in preventing this virus. Stay healthy!

About Flu Shot
A flu shot is a vaccination for the influenza virus, of which there are many dangerous strains.
About Swine Flu
The H1N1 viral strain implicated in the 2009 flu pandemic among humans often is called "swine flu" because initial testing showed many of the genes in the virus were similar to influenza viruses normally occurring in North American swine. According to the Centers for Disease Control in humans the symptoms of the 2009 "swine flu" H1N1 virus are similar to those of flu and include fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, chills and tiredness.
About Flu
Influenza is common in the United States and around the world. In recent years, due to international travel, flu has become pandemic. It's a good idea to get a flu shot if you are in a high-risk group, which includes children and the elderly, among others.
