Ind. hospital fires 8 workers who refused flu shot
I'm one of those who refuses to get a flu shot, even though 99% of my coworkers sign up for them because the school brings them in for "free". My sister, who is a nurse, also refuses to get the flu shots that the hospitals demands she get...so she and another nurse just say they gave them to each other so they don't get fired. (RIDICULOUS!) (That hospital has since gone belly up and they've all been fired anyway, but I don't understand how an employer or government can demand you get a shot of ANY kind. "Keep your hands off my body" to coin a phrase.)
“We have overpromoted and overhyped this vaccine,” said Michael T. Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy, as well as its Center of Excellence for Influenza Research and Surveillance. “It does not protect as promoted. It’s all a sales job: it’s all public relations.”

My whole family are doctors. Some at Mayo. here's the deal-by the time they figure out which strains-the strains have changed. The govt moves slowly. it's like this-are you going to eat expired eggs? some will, some won't. but it's not effective in flu prevention either way. that said, in high population areas, there are viruses that are "older" still hanging on. the shot might help against those, but the stats don't really show a strong correlation. here's what I like about your article- the other articles!!!
