Yes, I got that too, though I suspect I had it on the way back from burning man.
One really bad night by the road in utah.
There are always more types of flu, than the flu shot covers.
They only include the three best guesses at highest risk.
And too strong an exposure can make you sick anyway, too.
I'm at the tail end of my shot's most effective period now.
I want people to be aware that a false negative can occur.
When I went back, the flu test was strong positive.
Only then did I get the tamiflu.
They gave me antibiotics at first, which was a huge mistake.
Made me really sick.
