She is a healthy child and her primary doctor's office does not consider her at "high risk". So, she could not receive flu shot from her own doctor’s office. The doctor's office told us that they needed to provide the flu shots to so-called high-risk group first. We were told that we needed to wait. And they could not tell how long we needed to wait.
Flu season is approaching and I would like my daughter to have the flu shot as early as possible.
Could someone provide me the info? Thanks.

No matter where you go the high risk people are going to be allowed to get the shot first. Check you county or state health website to find out where the flu clinics are being held this year and then call and ask if your daughter can a shot. I did flu clinics last year for extra money and now that we were supposed to only give the shots to high risk people up until a certain date and then anyone could get it.

why would you want to give your daughter another vaccine for a disease that the flu shot may not even cover? there are many strains of the flu....the vaccine only covers a few.
my child who is known to have asthma doesn't even get the flu shot...forget that stuff! i wouldn't give my child any vaccines that may provide and opening to some other messed up diesease 30 years later.
think about the vaccines...they use live accinuated viruses. they inject the body with this and several other substances that aren't good for any livng thing. you can overload your daughters immune system.
when a person gets the naturally occuring kind of disease like the flu, chances of getting the same exact strain are highly unlikely. the vaccine is short lived.
read up on vaccines...you might find that sometimes its better left alone....especially in a healthy child.

Do NOT get vaccinated.
A vaccinated person is MORE likely to get a disease than a non-vaccinated person. The whole theory of vaccination is flawed. It causes a weakening of the immune system thus making those who are innoculated more susceptible to disease.
There are so many awful side effects to vaccination that it should be considered extremely dangerous.
Just sit back and think for a while.
Is there any sense in injecting a disease directly into your body.
We have been subjected to an awful mind control program to enable the drug manufacturers to make a fortune.

If you go to the vaccination liberation web page, at

You will find all the forms necessary to provide exemption for your child.

Call your local health department and they will direct you...in larger cities; malls and stores like WalMart have flu shot days advertised in local papers.
