Yes there are different strains of the flu in different parts of the world and the flu shot isn't always up to date with the latest ' flu'. However having the flu shot can lessen its effects.

Well im a nut when it comes to this,
there is no doubt in my mind flu shots are not only the reason many people die but are actually designed to kill elderly.
It is well known that the population of the USA and world must be reduced by millions maybe up to 100 million by 2012 and beyond.
Bird flu? I believe current flu shots are setting people up to be more receptive to whatever virus they decide to kill all of us off with. especially the retirees who will # 130 million by 2012 , talk about social security and medicare payouts,,,,, notta !!! too much on economy!!!
But then again im crazy!!

Yes- it is still possible that you can get the flu, despite a flu shot. The flu shot uses a virus that is prevalent from the previous year. As there are millions of strains of viruses, it is basically a hit or miss situation getting the flu shot so it is still possible to get some strain of flu.

You can have flu like symptoms from the shot, but they no longer use live flu shots they are synthietic, but anytime you put chemical ionto your body you can have a reaction.
