I'll be fine, really

At our last monthly Ambulance Association meeting, Bernie, our EMS chief, announced that flu shots were available to those members of the crew who wanted them.  Apparently, EMTs are eligible for free flu shots or something.  Actually, I’m not entirely sure what Bernie said about the shots because I felt that it was important to inform those around me that I’ve never had a flu shot.  ”I’ve never had the shot and I never get the flu,” I whispered to K, who was seated to my right. (I’ll protect the privacy of all EMTs in this story except Bernie). K whispered back, “Me neither.  I don’t think I’ve ever had the flu in my life.”  Then M, on my left, offered, “I’ve never had the shot either. I never really get sick.”
