Had my flu shot this morning....

[blondbeauty]

Yes! the one manufatured by Sanofi-Aventis. Still alive!  I am flying to Sao Paulo at 24.30 this evening. I hope I don´t drop dead in the middle of the aisle or on a passenger´s meal.

oh, you flight attendants are always so damned dramatic.

Hey Juan,

You will be fine. Enjoy your flight.



Make the BEST of each Day!

I Had My Flu SHot On Saturday,I Just Walked Into
Publix Paid $25 and 2 minutes Later I Was Out The Door.
That Would Take Hours In London.
No Ill Effects As Far As Im Aware.

25 $? It cost me 7 euros at the pharmacy and the private clinic was "free". Fortunately my private insurance covers everything except HIV.

I Can Get It Free If Im Prepared To Go And Wait In The
Hospital In Line,I Just Thought This Was So Convenient!
Fortunately My Insurance Does Cover My HIV Treatment
But Not Meds,Which Are Free In The Uk Anyway!

I went to a small clinic down the corner full of mothers with babies. I am sure I was the only HIV+ there...The first insurance company that covers HIV in Spain will have thousands of customers. Today all private hospitals and insurance companies exclude it specifically...You have to go to the social security. Does anybody want to open an insurance company in Spain? You would be rich in no time!
By the way...I am still alive and still in Sao Paulo where it is pouring rain.

Had mine this morning, it was free.  Well, insurance paid for it I suppose.  Was at the doc for my quarterly bloodwork and he used it has an opportunity to further bill my insurance, I am sure.  No ill effects, but then again, the flu or the flu shot never really bothered me much.  As for flight attendants being dramatic, yes we are!

[Val]

Huh, flight attendants dramatic?  No way! Some of them (a few, perhaps?) are melodramatic, I agree.  All of the rest, though, they ain't dramatic; they are nerve-shattering!

Yesterday I went in to get blood taken and no one offered any flu shots. Gee you would think a major hospital in NY would be making sure people with compromiised immune systems got a shot.

[blondbeauty]

Maybe a GP would give it to you.....
And Yes! we are that way. I am dramatic, hysterical...the only thing I am missing to be a perfecta flight attendant is being blond!

[alisenjafi]

blond can be overrated- lately I have a craving for red heads! What is worse or tacky is dark people dying their hair to that  crappy yellow color- me I shave it all off!

Maybe a GP would give it to you.....

I wished my last gp would have  !!!
