And "The Flu" is a family of fairly mutable virii. The non-pandemic influenza vaccine is just a guess by makers as to what will be the most likely of the 3 strains to pop up in a given year. It's a crapshoot, but every year they try to push it on everyone, not just the old folks. Then I have to put up with the wife feeling like hell for 2 days because she was stupid enough to get one, even though the same thing happened to her the year before that, and the year before that, and so on.
