Foster Families Continue to Fight Flu Vaccine
In the state of Washington, foster families who house any foster child under the age of two must have everyone in the household vaccinated against the flu. Those who refuse to comply with the law may lose their foster license.

And how effective is this flu vaccine law, anyway, when kids go to day care or preschool where the complete vaccination cannot be enforced.
