Sure, but the question is...

  What's more convenient and likely to be followed: a 6-monthly jab or a daily pill?
not...

  Is it possible to remember to do something everyday?

That's fair, but that wasn't actually the question

> Do you have kids, if so how do you deal with frequent disruptions to the morning routine? Do you not have days where you just need to get up and go e.g. to catch a flight, get to a meeting, take a kid to school, or because you stayed up late and got drunk, etc... and taking vitamins took a back seat?

What's being asked here was "do you have days where you won't bother to take your medicine". And my point was, as a diabetic... no, I don't. I do it every day at pretty much the same time. And I expect most people could do exactly the same. Having children or wanting to stay out late drinking doesn't change that.

That being said, I 100% that I would prefer one shot every 6 months, if that was an option (I take 2 shots per day at the same times, and then 2-8 more over the course of the day)
