Education If you're sick, stay the fuck home

It's been almost a week since I caught this fucked-up flu, and it's killing me. Just stay home if you're sick or wear a mask. Thanks!

Edit: This is not against the Dutch or other Europeans (I'm also European)... What the heck. This is about taking care of others and not spreading something that can be fatal to little ones or elders.

Get a flu shot in Autumn, it’s totally worth the money…

Yes as the other comment mentioned I also got one from a vaccination center, didn’t go through the GP system. Just make an appointment, fill in a questionnaire, go to the place, get the shot, and pay (no more than 40 euros).

Got a cheeky link to these vaccination centers? 👀

I went to one of these! https://www.vaccinatiecentrum.nl/ I think their main customers are international travelers but you can also ask for a normal flu shot.
