Yes, if you have mild symptoms like the sniffles it is okay to get the vaccine, however, if you have a high fever, you should wait until that is over. If you are under a doctor's care, then ask them if you should wait or get the vaccination.
When you go to get the vaccination, the clinician who will be giving it will ask you about fever or other symptoms and will decide if it would be better to wait. You can call and describe your symptoms to a pharmacist and ask them if you can still get the flu vaccine. See also the related question below about who should not get a flu vaccination (it doesn't matter which strain of flu you are being vaccinated against to follow this advice).
Yes and that is important since you can not be certain that the type of flu you have is the same as the one the vaccine is for. As long as you are free of high fevers it would be okay to get the vaccination. However, if you have the flu, then you should not be going out in public unless absolutely required to see the doctor. Wait until you are no longer able to infect others, then get your vaccination.
You will likely have mild to severe flu symptoms. Cancel your shot if you have a fever, and don't fib if the nurse ask you if you have been sick in the last week. The only person you will hurt is yourself.
If you already have an infection indicated by a fever, then you should wait until after the fever is gone before getting a vaccination. The reason is that the immune system is already stressed by the current infection that is causing the fever, and when you give a vaccine to someone, you are going to cause them to have an immune response to the injected antigen and that will add extra stress to an already stressed system. It is just best to wait until after the fever is gone down to below 101F to get vaccinations so your immune system isn't having to "fight" two different infections at once.
It depends on what the illness is. The best answer will come from your own health care professional, or you can ask your pharmacist.
In most cases, as long as you don't have a fever, you can usually get the flu shot. Be sure to tell the clinician who will be giving you the vaccination about any illness before receipt of the vaccine.
A flu shot will not give an otherwise healthy person the flu. There are precautions for those with immuno-suppression and that should be discussed with the health care professional in charge of the care. A flu shot might give you some mild "flu-like" symptoms of mild body aches, headache, or low grade temperature, but it would not usually be more than minor symptoms. The area where the injection was put may have local reaction to some of the ingredients in the vaccine such as redness, swelling, soreness or itching, but these are usually also mild and go away in a day or two. You are less likely to have serious illness or reactions to the flu shot than you are by going without it and risking illness or even death from the flu.
It will hurt for a few seconds as the injection is given and then, due to the immune response, you may get very mild flu-like symptoms of aches and low grade fever under 100F for a few days after while your body creates the immunity. You may also have a localized reaction to the shot where it was injected for a few days with soreness and red or swollen area around it. Using the arm (or leg) normally after the injection will help this go away fastest.
Also you will not get the flu.

yes there are people who say no, but if you take bio, you would understand why it happens.
Yes. This happens once in a while if the ball is accidentally tipped into the hoop while trying to rebound. Also, once in a while a player will forget which end of the court his team is defending and take a shot at his own team's basket. This happens fairly often with very young players who easily forget which end of the court they are on.
You'll probably die or be very sick.
yeah my cat did and it wasnt nice i had to take her the the emergency vet to get a shot.........
