...and the flu shot is the only determining factor in being susceptible to the flu or not?

We wouldnt want to get too detailed in ones life displayed for all to see on the interwebs.

For those who don't know, the flu shot only contains like the 3 most popular strands predicted for that season. You can still get the flu because there are other strands out there you don't protect yourself from.

Also, http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142 ... 29846.html You'll like this one NAB. I lost the link to the actual study that said NBA teams that high five more often do better than those that do is less.

Also, you're much much much more likely to contract the flu indoors and the flu basically dies quickly in outdoor exposure in the air so I wouldn't be too concerned about soccer players high fiving. They're more likely getting it in the classroom touching than playing ball.

What toxins are in a flu shot?

Perhaps you mean thimerosal? Triton X-100? Polysorbate 80? Or formaldehyde?

Good luck finding causal relationships in scientific studies for those chemicals. While it's true that the flu shot may not actually prevent the flu (you can catch a different strain), there is virtually no scientific evidence showing that the flue shot causes any serious medical condition.
