C: the ones given out in october/november wont protect you from swine flu which takes me back to point B

the way i see it is that if your gonna get flu your gonna get it and apart from living in isolation theres not much you can do to avoid it

Well, I agree in principle with points A to C but when you have a potentially lethal condition you do try to get as much protection as possible. I can only reiterate, hygiene is the answer to the spread of most infections.
