I got both. Just curious. Thanks!
I hope this topic doesn't go off the rails.

How many of you are getting both the Flu and COVID shots?

Emma had swine flu when she was younger, which turned into Guillame Barre Syndrome (French polio), so she can't get a flu shots (which could trigger a relapse of the polio).
So she gets Covid shot, and I get both. Sept 10th this time around. I was achey and tired for a couple days, then fine afterwards.

Ditto.
I didn't even feel the shots.

Same for me.
1976'ish,.... we lined up to receive the Swine Flu vaccine, via high pressure air injection (drop dead from it painful). The next day, while at school, i was told that I had a crushing headache, and then passed out into a coma that lasted two days in intensive care. When I came back, I had amnesia, and could not remember a thing that happened that day, or the week prior.
My case, resolved itself without any further complications, but I had a world famous brain surgeon for an across the street neighbor, who stayed by my side (at our house) for the first night, and checked in regularly for night two (now four days after injection).
Many people ended up permanently paralyzed from this nightmare vaccine.
Nope, no more vaccines or inoculations for me.

Nether for me. Last time I got a flu shot I had the flu 10 days later. That wound up as double pneumonia and being in a ICU on a ventilator. Not saying the vaccine gave me the flu but it didn’t keep me from getting it either. I’m my heart I truly believe that shot nearly killed me. Literally almost dead

I will be getting both but not at the same time. I'm 70 with diabetes
Nope! Not discussing it either.
Got the flu shot, always do. Will not be getting the covid shot until January, since I had covid (first time) in July. It was like a moderate cold for two weeks; guessing it could have been worse if I had not been vaxxed. I'm 81, definitely at an age when covid can be severe.

Always got the flu shot up until the Covid years. Never got the flu. Haven't got it since. Only one in my family and only one at work to not get Covid.
So no and no for me.

I wonder how many of our experiences are coincidental and not due to the shots we did, or didn't, get? We have our personal experiences, but that's a sample-size of one rather than the large cross-section required for a more scientific determination.
Our experience is that my wife and I have been vaccinated against flu and covid for the past five years and have avoided getting sick. Our two adult children and their SO's have not. They all have been sick with flu and each had covid twice. Given the many work-days lost to illness, several thousand dollars of pay were not received.
In someone else's case the opposite may have been what happened. Being old and having received a good scientific background, we're still taking our chances with the needle, until evidence indicates otherwise. YMMV, of course.
