You're also basically risking getting sick a little bit from the shot to have a small % chance of not getting badly sick.

True. I get the flu shot every year since I've had kids, and two of the the last three years I've gotten flu-like symptoms from the shot. Which sucked. But not as much as having the actual flu, or having it and then giving it to my elderly parents and killing them. So I still get the shot.
