NJ flu-shot mandate for preschoolers draws outcry

Link

As flu season approaches, many New Jersey parents are furious over a first-in-the-nation requirement that children get a flu shot in order to attend preschools and day-care centers. The decision should be the parents’, not the state’s, they contend.

“This is not an anti-vaccine rally — it’s a freedom of choice rally,” said one of the organizers, Louise Habakus. “This one-size-fits-all approach is really very anti-American.”

Yet check out the sign…

This wasn’t a freedom of choice rally, it was a junk science rally. I applaud New Jersey for trying to prevent a pandemic. Personally, if I ran a daycare I’d say no vaccine no daycare.

    I couldn’t agree more Trent. These parents are grasping at straws and are going to do everyone’s children more harm than good.

    Never mind the fact that diseases that were once thought wiped out, like polio, are making huge comebacks.Have fun getting your kid fit for that iron lung.
