To get the flu shot, or not to?

The Flu Shot

This article is about the benefits for pregnant women and getting the flu shot. Doctors are pushing for pregnant women to get vaccinated because it can also help thier unborn baby as well. Research has found infants later experience less sickness after they are born, if their mother got the flu vaccine. A lot of pregnant mothers are reluctant to be vaccinated.

  2. Yeah I saw that video....I am terrified to get it now, and definitely wouldn't take my chances. I'd rather keep the routine of washing my hands and using hand sanitizer as much as possible haha
