Why is Boeing not offering the nasal spray flu immunization option?
The live nasal spray flu vaccine is fine for some people. The expense continues to be almost double that of the price Boeing pays for the injectable vaccine. Because there are more individuals who cannot receive this vaccine for various medical conditions and ages, at this time it does not lend itself logistically as well as the injectable vaccine to a workplace mass immunization program. More information on the nasal spray option can be found at this CDC link: http://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/qa/nasalspray.htm.
