Did anyone else hear the piece on NPR the other day announcing that it was
the Govt's intention to make it a misdemeanor for a Dr. to give a flu shot to
someone who is not in the high-risk group? I only heard a fragment....I
would love the gap filled in.

I was wondering about that: my doctors have almost always had enough

Interesting, isn't it?
