For what it is worth, our physician told us that anyone over 55 should not take a nasal flu shot. That they are meant for kids.

He especially warned respiratory and cardiac patients that they would actually be putting their health at risk if they took a nasal injection.

Any doctors in the House?

The FluMist is approved only for ages 5-49. I happen to be the latter.
