Flu shots are a live-virus shot, right?

The last time I had a flu shot, I came down with rather severe flu-like symptoms. In fact, so severe that I've decided that I prefer the (small) odds of getting/not getting real flu, versus the (higher) odds of getting ill off of the flu shot.

I'd also comment that, if your body is currently trying to fight off a viral attack (the cold), it might not be the best idea to give it another virus (the live-virus shot) to deal with at the same time.

And, frankly, I don't like needles.
