Dear Administrator:
On August 13, 2009 an emergency regulation went into effect, which requires that all personnel of certain health care settings receive annual vaccinations against influenza by November 30 of each year

Is that the ONLY job out there? no. Healthcare workers are in HUGE demand right now. The choice they're making is to complain and get angry and rage at the machine, but in the end the choice is theirs to do it, or don't. If it was me, and I felt like they did, I'd refuse the shot and take it from there. Forcing would be to restratin them and give them the shot against their will.
O.P., I have to say man, that I think with all respect that your wife may be in the wrong field of work. ALL of the education that she went through has made it VERY clear that these situations happen, and that medical staff are required to be vaccinated against spreadable diseases, viruses, etc. Its nothing new.
I know for a FACT that your wife had to have been vaccinated against other diseases such as Hepatitis if she has/had direct contact with patients at any time.
So why is she okay with THOSE vaccines to protect patients, but not the flu vaccinations?
Its very clear that it is a PERSONAL choice of hers to not want to take the FLU vaccine.

The difference is they didn't try to break their nose off with a bottle.
Seriously, who does that?
And then try to use that example as justification for your illogical thread?
I'm half your age but probably twice as prudent as you are.
