The FluMist nasal vaccine is limited to younger folks

Ah, I didn't know that. Seems like a darn good reason. What's the problem with the FluMist vaccine for us "old" farts?

I am not sure, but it uses Live Attenuated Influenza Virus, and people under 2 or over 50 are more susceptible to serious flu effects (same ages as those not recommended for FluMist).
