I am a healthcare worker.
Healthcare workers are on the CDC's "priority" list for receiving flu shots during this year's shortage.
The county health department is refusing to release doses to our hospital's infection control nurse.
The suggestion has been offered that we head down to one of the drug stores that's giving out shots for $20 each (the ones that are having the riots over people cutting in line), getting it there, and making sure we bring a receipt back to work so we can be reimbursed.
I have been advised to avoid the offers of "FluMist" like the plague that it is ... live flu virus is involved, so you do get sick from the administration.
