In double blind, placebo controlled trials in patients around 60 years old who have had a heart attack, flu shots were shown to decrease ALL-CAUSE mortality Will I be taking one? No. I’m 40 and have no heart condition But if I had CAD, or a prior MI, I would be considering it. Does it have side effects both known and unknown, yes. But people with heart disease lived longer in the 5 year duration of the study. https://t.co/FKzMiNDgce
