I got a flu shot a couple of years ago, and have not gotten one again.

I already have one of these as a part of my work that I did before I
retired.

I rarely get sick and have never been sick before or on a cruise or
when traveling which I do a lot of, but I don't do any of those
things.

I wash my hands rarely, and do have my hands on my face, I don't
usually use the sanitizer thingy on the ship, I drink water almost
everywhere it is said to be safe to drink and have drinks with ice
cubes and don't have a flu shot or anything like that. I do try to
stay hydrated and carry water with me, and I don't go around kissing
or even shaking hands with people. Since I'm retired I'm not exposed
to sick co-workers or children..
