I got my flu shot yest. & based on previous discussions on here about a stronger dose & the resulting illness, I asked her about it. She said they don't use it but had heard of it being used by people 65 & older. They only use the original vaccine. She said it might be regional or what strains of flu may hit certain parts of the country. She also said if the orig. vaccine works, why mess with it. I had no desire to try something new since this one has worked for me.
