It seems belonephobia is keeping people away from doctors and dentists - and from flu shots. Belonephobia is the fear of needles and I think all of us have a touch of it. The National Post spins the issue as one of ethics - doctors need to make sure the jab doesn't hurt. But that's easier said than done.
In the meantime, I've blogged about belonephobia before. Remember the Dentist Sketch from the Carol Burnett Show?
