Should Children Be Required to Get a Flu Shot for Daycare?

Please tell us what you think?

Today we ask a question that was addressed on the Newtown Patch site
earlier this month.

The Centers for Disease Control recommends that children younger than
5-years-old get vaccinated against the seasonal flu, and in fact there
is a new rule requiring all children in daycare to receive the flu
shot. What do parents think about the new rule that all children in
daycare must get the flu shot? Good idea? Bad idea? Tell us your
thoughts!
