As for mandating flu shots for hospital workers, I’m afraid that makes sense. Hospitals are necessary, but they are also cesspits of infection, even when well run. If you want to be a health care worker, then you want to reduce the risk of giving the flu to your patients.

Perhaps mandatory flu shots for ALL people entering a hospital would be a good idea...patients are exposed to other patients...visitors could be carrying flu germs when they come in to sit with friends and relatives.
