Influenza vaccinations are actually made from a killed vaccine, so it's
*impossible* to catch the flu from them. There are a myriad of Web sites
which cover this piece of information; here's one good site that I found
that might help you:

Hope that helps! It's from an FAQ on influenza.

P.S. You can get (mild) flulike symptoms from the shot .. just not the
flu itself. I'll take the mild flulike symptoms over a real case of the
flu anyday! Bring on the shot! ;->
