Is it mandatory for a nurse to receive a flu vaccination (either the seasonal flu vaccination or the 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccination?
Nurses may choose to receive a vaccination to prevent exposing patients to the flu and to protect themselves from possible infection. A person may be contagious prior to developing symptoms with either seasonal flu or the 2009 H1N1 influenza and thus may expose others to the disease. The process for making most flu vaccines is such that individuals with egg allergies generally cannot take the injection form of vaccination.
