I don't know if this has been done yet, but I was wondering how many people have gotten the flu since using there PV?

I've been vaping for over 2 months and lots of people at school and in my family have had the flu and I haven't been sick at all.
Well, I can't say that correlation is causation, but I haven't had the flu either. This poll will only become more telling as we move into flu season. H1N1 is bouncing around my office like a super ball, but I feel fine. 
I probably should have included that. Didn't even think of the flu shot. I haven't gotten the flu shot. Don't plan on it either. Never have.
Is this in reference to the study on airborne infectious disease reduction done back in the early forties where by they discovered that PG vapor proved effective at killing a host of infectious bacteria and viruses?
I started to feel like I was going to get the flu but that only lasted 1 day and never got it. It would be nice if this helps keep from getting the flu. my medical condition I have I catch colds and flu a lot cause my body is trying to fight the ulcers I have. if I get the flu shot I always get the flu so I stoped getting the shot.
i dont believe in flu shots. I have been directly exposed to H1N1 - supposedly anyway, thats what the kids md said he had, and not only did I not catch it but neither did my son.
sorry, wish the theory was true, believe me...been vaping since june, have been in bed (still vaping ) with the flu since tuesday.....
) with the flu since tuesday.....
I've had the flu shot and have every intention of getting the H1N1 shot when it's available so I guess I don't count.
But, I did just get back from a trip. On the plane, I had one guy coughing and sneezing. I immediately came home, added some PG to my VG loaded PV and vaped like crazy the rest of the day.
Between the two, I hope I don't get anything.
They say the Swine flu can hit you almost immediately after coming in contact and so far, I'm feeling fine.

In the United States, on average 5% to 20% of the population gets the flu
Results are hitting at about 10% so far. It will be very interesting to re run this poll again in 6 months.

No flu shot for me and no flu, but my hubby hasn't gotten any flu either and he doesn't vape (no flu shot either). So it's inconclusive so far. If hubby eventually gets it and I don't, I'll be convinced vaping is helping fend it off because I always get sick after he does!
My wife is currently under the wheather with stuffed up sinuses and a head cold. Not really the flu...I think...I hope not. She does not vape and I do. I'm perfectly fine.
No flu shots for either of us by the way.

I rarely get sick, I should say , my immediate family rarely gets sick (flu or flu like ) they have sinus issues though.
Been vapin for what, just over a month, something like that ? Almost half of my son's school was out for fevers and such, so far, nothing here.
Of course we eat very well, I don't mean expensive, the antithesis if anything, bt we eat many colors of many veggies, all different types of meats (local meats), nothing in excess.
We shall see. Oh and I have never had a flu shot, nor has anyone else in my immediate family, nor would we dream of receiving the one that our government seems to be shoving down our throats. I may regret not. But if I remember my 5th grade health class, your body develops a natural immunity , the more it works, the more it can work. Just my thoughts.
