New Jersey boy not allowed back to school without flu shot

[JBond]

I have mixed feeling about schools mandating what our kids get shot up with. From my understanding the magical flu vaccine is not even effective against the current outbreak. I believe many of these "vaccines" are nothing more than money makers for companies.

I understand polio and TB and similar things, but to force a child out of school because his parents do not want him to have a ineffective shot against a cold is just stupid, especially when the child is allergic to ingredients in the shot.

I have not had a flu shot in 25 years and have not had the flu in 25 years.

A 4-year-old boy from New Jersey was asked not to return to his school without a flu shot. But his parents say the child is allergic to the raw egg in the vaccine.

Jeremy Pereira was home playing on an iPad instead of attending school on Monday. Jeremy is allergic to egg, which is present in the flu vaccine. His parents won't expose him but without the shot his school won't let him back until April.

The Pereiras say they had a letter from Jeremy's pediatrician explains his egg allergy.
