Flu question....please answer!?

ok so this is really weird. i always get the flu every two yrs. and its the kinda flu with the pucking and that stuff. i didn't get it this year so i know that i am going to get it next year. i also never get the flu without the pucking. it is ALWAYS every two yrs. why is this? does my body just have a schedule to get the flu?

Well, in a way it could. You're body goes through immune phases where it is trying to develop new immunities to new diseases. This weakens your immune system as a whole making you more vulnerable.

BUT! New strains of viruses are always out there, and the high season for newer viruses is usually every two years.

no... flu or influenza is not a pre-arranged illness. one catches it when s/he goes near a person who has one (especially when that infected person sneezes without covering his mouth..) or may if your immune system is a bit weak, you may easily catch it.. It is a virus that one gets from someone who has it... If there is a flu "outbreak" in your school or area, be very careful... avoid crowded places...

ps: I have not had one for the the past five years now... so I guess, it is not a planned thing...

I don't think it is a shedule, just seems to happen that way. Maybe you wont get it for the next 10 years!
