Re: "Senior" Flu Shot vs the Regular Dose

I went to my primary care doctor for my flu shot a few hours ago, and they let me decide which shot I wanted.  I'm not in any way "immune compromised" so I chose the regular shot.  I've heard too many stories at this point of reactions to the senior shot. I guess the true test will be when flu season hits, whether fewer people who got the senior dose get sick.
