Lightbulb Re: Flu 'Becoming Resistant To Drugs'

The "Flu" INFLUENZA has killed millions of people since the early 1900's that is why the shot is so important especially for the very young and the elderly, and those with compromised respitory systems. There are 3 classes of FLU each one more deadly then the other. That is why people don't think they will survive the FLU, because many won't unless they have the shot.

I work around elderly people it is mandatory that I have a flu shot every year. Now that I soon to be 60 I have it, and I will be adding a pneumonia shot next year.

The last flu pandemic broke out in 1918 following World War I, killing more than 40 million people. There were subsequent pandemics in 1957 and 1968 which had lower death rates but caused great disruption, he said.
