Getting the flu shot will not give you the flu. Just like any other vaccination, the flu shot produces an immune system response. That's how antibodies are formed. During this immune response symptoms such as fever, aches, typical stuff can be experienced. But this does not mean you are getting the flu from the flu shot. Just means that your body is gearing up against the flu.
