As a school nurse, I often have conversations with concerned parents regarding the controversy involving vaccines. Most of the parents with whom I speak about their vaccine concerns have not even researched the vaccines for themselves. Should that lead one to surmise that word of mouth is the best way to spread information? School Nurses not only administer vaccines, but also try to educate both adults and children regarding the benefits of vaccines, including the seasonal flu as well as the H1N1 flu vaccine. Mothers who have lost a child to the seasonal flu, attend our annual statewide school nurse conference. The mothers encourage school nurses to help get the word out about the importance of everyone receiving the annual seasonal flu vaccine. It is important for everyone to receive flu vaccines. It can mean the difference between life and death.

chronic disease is very dangerous if not treated in time, one must assess the possibility of having adequate vaccine and thus avoid future problems with the disease, this points findrxonline in his column on influenza.

Sore arm is usually the worst side-effect I get from a flu shot, but it lasts 2-3 days! Ouch. My mother once made the mistake of getting the flu shot in one arm and the pneumonia vaccine in the other. She could barely lift either arm for days. Still, small price to pay, when the risk of illness is as great as it is in your case!
