Ummm...ewww? It's not like getting the swine flu--or any flu--is inevitable. I have to get the vax because I have asthma. I get the seasonal flu vaccine as soon as it's available and now I'm just cooling my heels until the H1N1 vaccine is available.
I wish I would have gotten the chickenpox as a kid or at least the vaccine. My mother worked very hard at making sure me and my sister did NOT get it. Her reasoning wasn't anything other than finding it disgusting. Yes, seriously. So, instead of our getting it when we were in grade school and taking a week off from school when it had no major impact, my sister got it when she was 21 and I got it when I was 15. We were both extremely sick.
Having to take 2 weeks off from school during PSAT time=horrible. Having to take 2 weeks off from college and not being able to work=ridiculous.
