Not everyone. Some people could be resistant for it due to their immunity. On the other hand, I haven't noticed any difference between the % of people who catches the flu regardless if they are vaccinated or not. As I said above, we have very cold winter here, so Russia is a good polygon to test anti-flu vaccines for their efficiency.
I'm not an anti-vaccine adept and I know that some vaccines are very effective and essential for a whole humanity. E.g. anti-polio, anti-smallpox etc, but the anti-flu one is not among those. Just because there is a countless number of various flu strains and every one needs its own vaccine.
Flu is like a canine distemper. So here is just a example. My dog was not vaccinated and a dog of my neighbors was. They both were the same breed (German Shepherd) and of the same age (about 1 year old). So my dog has survived, while the vaccinated one has died. How come?
