If we were to quarantine all that don't get a flu shot, the US would come to a standstill. Currently only 40% of the population get the flu shot.

Maybe the rest should be given the shot at gunpoint.


good idea!

And how many still get the flu? LOL.

It's just laughable...

We wouldn't have The large spread of flu if people would stay home when they are sick...but they don't...so will they be more careful if they have ebola syptoms?

Nope...because people tend to go about their merry business, work, school, church, shop, etc even when sick.

They'll just think they're coming down with the flu.

I think the military got it right and I feel their decisions make communities feel that every possible precautions are in place to keep the public safe.thank you to the military for all that you do...away and at home

I won't get it - but I don't think I'm in a high-risk group for contracting it. I would feel safe by not getting it.
