As a future nurse I really hope this does not become a nation-wide trend.

Not even an exemption? Good Grief.

Under the proposed regulations, the only people who would be exempt from getting a flu vaccination by Nov. 30 of each year would be those who had a medical reason for avoiding the shot.

Once they mandate (with no exemptions) for health care workers, I bet they come after the rest of us... maybe not today or tomorrow... but eventually it will come!


Health care workers: Do not accept this!! Fight it with everything you have! Do not submit your body to the medical profession - YOU own it, nobody else! If you want the flu shot, thats fine, but if not, DON'T allow anyone to tell you what to do!!

Honestly, I'd quit and find another job. But, easier said than done, especially in our economy at the moment.

Hmmm, I'd imagine that legally they would have to allow a religious exemption.
