I got mine last week. I did feel kinda crappy for a few days as did most of my coworkers. It's a dead virus, so you're not technically getting "the flu" but most people do run a low-grade fever and get somewhat sick, in my experience. I don't necessarily get it for me... even though I caugh the flu the one year I didn't get the shot and I was miserable for five days. I get it because I work with children with chronic illness and screwed up immune systems. I'll take the couple of days feeling nasty to the guilt over one of those kids getting it because I carried it with me any day. One of my friend's kids caught influenza a two years ago and lost almost half his body weight. He was four... went from almost 30 lbs to a little over 16 lbs. I'd never take the chance that I could do that to an already sick kid.
