I need to get a flu shot. I never have in years past, but with a 6 month old in the house I feel like I need to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1211825 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 16:49:07 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1211825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just wanted to bump this in relation to the blog post about flu today. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1100076 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 01:49:52 +0000 banana 1100076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got 2! I feel like a loser now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1098856 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 16:34:49 +0000 lovehoneybee 1098856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oy, I only got 3!</p> <p>But we'll both get flu shots in the next few weeks, and will schedule one for E as well. Do you think November would be too late (that's when his next scheduled appointment is...). </p> <p>He didn't get one last year because he wasn't old enough until flu season was pretty much over, he's not in day care, and DH and I both got one, but he'll get one this year. DH got BAD sick with the flu last year, even after getting a flu shot, but he wasn't nearly as bad off as his co-workers who got the same flu but not a flu shot (2 days out of work as opposed to a week...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1098775 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 16:10:37 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 1098775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got 5 right. But I got lucky on most of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1098734 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 15:55:33 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1098734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: That's awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1097180 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 10:48:37 +0000 JoJoGirl 1097180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Geez.... I only got 5 right!</p> <p>BTW have you guys seen the video they talked about? We watched it at work a few years ago (when I did infectious disease work) and it's HILARIOUS.</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtnEwvUWDo0" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtnEwvUWDo0</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1097120 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 10:32:04 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1097120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I got 3 too. I've given the quiz to all of my students (I teach HS). I was really glad to know that the flu virus will die on my hands by the time I get home from work since my commute is half an hour, but I'd really like to know exactly how long it can live on my clothes or hair! I'm so paranoid about getting my former 25-weeker sick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1096920 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 09:46:30 +0000 Smurfette 1096920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That was bad, only 3 right. R got the flu shot with her 6 month shots last week. DH and I are getting it sometime soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1096909 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 09:44:30 +0000 Adira 1096909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got four right! And the whole family is getting the flu shot! Xander already got his! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1096886 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 09:38:14 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1096886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I. Did. Terrible. </p> <p>I already planned on all four of us getting the flu shot, but this quiz is interesting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1096860 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 09:32:48 +0000 Shutterbug 1096860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha I totally failed this quiz - got a 3.</p> <p>I usually get flu shots, and will continue to get them. This winter I was the sickest I've been in a while (no flu, but 3 bugs with fever and vomiting, etc) but I'm not blaming the flu shot, and if I (hopefully!) get pregnant this winter I'll be glad I got the shot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1096851 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 09:31:02 +0000 swurlygurl 1096851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha, for the question 'What part of the face do people touch most frequently' I was touching my lips at the time, so that's what I answered! Guess I'm a statistic ;)</p> <p>I got 6 right, but those were still just lucky guesses.</p> <p>I never got the flu shot before, but now with a baby in the house, I'm not just risking my health. I will probably get the shot this year :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimescom-flu-quiz#post-1096792 Thu, 19 Sep 2013 09:18:11 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1096792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm seeing lots of threads about flu shots and thought this quiz might help some of you out. It's fantastic. I am absolutely getting the flu shot. I never did before getting pregnant, but now that I have a son and have learned more about it, I'll always get it.</p> <p><a href="http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/02/13/the-well-flu-quiz/?_r=0" rel="nofollow">http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/02/13/the-well-flu-quiz/?_r=0</a></p> <p>What surprised you the most? </p>
