after several years of trying, only 21% of babies and toddlers are getting their flu shots:D:mad::rolleyes:

I'm sure we'll have birdflu threatened upon all babies and toddlers soon, and it will be the parents who don't vaccinate who are to blame.

Our newspaper had last year that the flu only protected agains about 30% or something of the flu. I can't figure out why they push it so much. Not a tot, but for ex, my mil got talked into her dr to get the vax this year. Because last year she got the flu so bad she was in bed for 2 weeks. Now this is a cancer surviver, and takes heart meds, high bp meds, colestoral meds etc, and is against vaccines! I never thought she'd get a flu vax. And while not the flu, she got sick with a horrendous cough/cold thing for 2 weeks while she was here.
