Speaking of immunity, even if you are so robustly healthy that a case of the flu won’t bother you much, getting vaccinated against flu (and other stuff) is quite the humanitarian gesture since it helps provide “herd immunity” for the rest of us. If you don’t get the flu, you can’t be a vector spreading it to those near and dear to you. And some of us near (maybe not dear) to you have weak immune systems and could REALLY be bothered by the little flu you pass on to us.
My post-transplant immune system thanks you for your attention.
