How about regular hand washing and not touching your face? How about sick people actually covering their mouth when they cough or sneeze? How about sick people staying home from work?

I generally consider the risk of myself catching something from a patient to be much higher than vice versa, from what I see, most of the public have poor sanitation and personal hygiene skills.

As for the person who commented about health care workers not being required to get the shot... how many immunizations should we be forced to have because we work with compromised people? There has already been much discussion about this in BC.

Curious if they do any testing afterwards in regards to levels of actual immunity built up towards the flu virus, for HEP A and B you can test for levels of immunity etc, some people despite repeated rounds of vaccinations never achieve immunity.
