Flu Shot???
How can I get my 10 month old son a flu shot? My pediatrician doesn't have
one. Local clinics are out. Canada is too far and apparently Mexico is risky. Anyone have an insight on this one? Neil R |

Anyone have an insight on this one? how 'at risk' is he for contracting flu? do you or his mom work in public jobs, like retail, where you are exposed? is he in public or private daycare or at home? my kid (4 years) hasn't ever had a flu shot, although he did get flu when he was 16 months & that was pretty miserable... but unless your son has a real need for it, like being prone to asthma or upper resperatory infection, i wouldn't worry too much. just make sure you wash your hands often & thouroughly. lee |

Yeah. Don't vote for Bush. Jeff Bush had nothing to do with the shortage of the flu shot. The company that made the vaccinations screwed up. -- Sue (mom to three girls) |

However it is my understanding that key public health officials have been telling the administration for years that reliance on so few vaccine manufacturers is a huge mistake, and that we were due for a big crisis some time soon because of it. This was ignored by the administration. -- Hillary Israeli, VMD Lafayette Hill/PA/USA/Earth "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
