A study of pneumococcal vaccines is being misread.
"The vaccinated [group] were usually older and had more health problems than those who were not vaccinated. That’s probably why they got vaccinated in the first place."

Feeling under the weather can ruin more than just your week; the flu can knock you out for 7–14 days, but most Americans only have 5 sick days to spare. Don’t let the flu steal your time, your money, or your vacation plans — get a flu shot!
