New Jersey flu-shot
mandate for pre-schoolers draws outcry

As flu season approaches, many New Jersey parents are furious
over a first-in-the-nation requirement that children get a flu
shot in order to attend pre-schools and day-care centers. The
decision should be the parents', not the state's, they contend.
Hundreds of parents and other activists rallied outside the New
Jersey Statehouse on Thursday, decrying the policy and voicing
support for a bill that would allow parents to opt out of
mandatory vaccinations for their children. "This is not an
anti-vaccine rally - it's a freedom of choice rally," said one
of the organizers, Louise Habakus.
