    Oh absolutely, I think it’s really important that we talk about flu-vaccines as more something that works on a population level (and that makes disease milder for the individual), than something that gives full protection to the individual. We need to talk about it is such a way that when the driveling idiots talk about an outbreak, we can point out that the outbreak would have effected 10x more people (and have higher lethality) if there weren’t vaccines. We should never claim that these vaccines give full protection to any individual.
