Actually, I have to agree -- that's just good public policy for all of us. If illegals aren't immunized, they will become a carrier population for the flu, and there are so many of them, they could also become a source for mutated versions of the virus that are not stopped by the current year's immunizations.

"the current year's immunizations."


The current flu shot given this year is a combination of the 2 or 3 most prevalent strains from last season. If they bring a *new* variety from their home countries, this shot won't make much difference. I'm more worried about the *really* bad diseases they might bring. I wonder if health issues are part of any *comprihensive* immigration plan or will that be dealt with as needed?
