Why husband and I have opposing views on the flu shot?
Hello there,
That must be very difficult and frustrating, but you could certainly try to gather evidence and make a decision together. Why flu vaccine is so important each year READ MORE
Hello there,
That must be very difficult and frustrating, but you could certainly try to gather evidence and make a decision together. Why flu vaccine is so important each year is to prevent COMPLICATIONS of the flu, and not per se, prevention from getting an illness itself. Maybe, come up with the compromise? Each year kids should get flu vaccine end of September, early October if possible.
Hope this helps and you make the best decision you can for your child.
