I guess I’m selfish too? But you go on and keep putting that shit in your body. I’m not anti bad and I get shots all the time when I travel, but I don’t need no stinking flu shot ya hear now. Is that dumb enough for you?
The people who are dumb are the ones who hire me and think I get the flu shot.
I don't know if this is for real and you are not required by law to get a flu shot. But this is about the worst thing I've ever read on this forum. You're lying to parents that you got the flu shot? What if they or their kid is immunocompromised? I don't think you'll understand the consequences of your actions until you have kids yourself.

Why are you posting on a DC parents’ forum: searching for intelligent life? Your narcissism is not appreciated here. If your kid got my kid sick - we know you wouldn’t care because of your aforementioned tunnel self-focus, but trust that you would find yourself litigated out of existence - DC style.
Haaaaaaaaaaa!!!! You are goib to sue someone for not getting a flu shot? Oh honey. You aren’t smart. It doesn’t work that way.

I’m posting on a nanny forum. Do you think DC is the center of the universe? Only people from DC post here? I can see you are triggered by the flu shot. That’s why I love California. Most people out here aren’t going to force you to put something in your body that you don’t want.

I hope you get the flu and realize how miserable it is. My elderly parents live in California and so does my sister and her newborn. Most people they know get the shot because they’re not idiots.
Lived here for 35 years, no flu. I hope you get the flu because you’re an ***hole.

about 80,000 people in the US died from the flu last year. This is about twice as many people as die in car accidents, yet I'm sure that all of you "anti flu shot" people wear seat belts when you drive and put your kids in car seats.

I am pretty mad but she's a good Au Pair overall so I can't really justify rematching over this. On the other hand, healthy people including children die of the flu every year. And I would feel terrible if our AP didn't get a shot and ended up hospitalized or dead or passed along the bug to a friend who cares for kids too young to vaccinate. Grrrr...
Did she agree before she was hired? If so, she needs to suck it up and go.

I have a huge needle phobia and get a shot every year. Your au pair needs to get it and stop being an idiot.

See, I am all for vaccinations. Tdap, MMR, Hepatitis A&B, Chickenpox (too old for HPV)... but the flu? The flu shot is pretty much guessing which strain(s) of the flu they think will hit hardest in the upcoming flu season (especially with the trivalent vaccine). We are TTC so we are vaccinating this year and we vaccinate with an infant in the home but other than that? While we won't match with an AP who didn't get vaccinated at all we are fine with not getting the flu shot.
While the flu shot is something of a guess, it still decreases the symptoms and length of the flu if you do get sick. Not only that, there is that whole herd immunity issue. The more people who have been vaccinated, the less likely there is to be a serious out break of the flu.
The flu kills every year. Why not get a quick shot and decrease your and your communities likelihood of suffering a illness that can cause death?
Because too many people are selfish and truly (and falsely) believe that they have more scientific knowledge than actual scientists
