It's my understanding they no longer use attenuated viruses, which are live strains, in a weakened state.....thus making the flu shot safer.

I was not a believer until a few years ago.

Now, I get one every year and I have not had the flu....it doesn't stop colds..but if you're prone to the flu or pneumonia, it's a good idea.
