Flu Alert: Beware of Doctors
Here's a horrifying fact. You're far more likely to get the flu from your doctor and his staff than you are the public. That's because, according to Judith Graham, posting at nytimes.com/newoldage, only 60 percent of healthcare workers get the vaccine. This includes my husband, a dentist, who's cavalier about getting sick (though a recent cold made him whimper like a baby and he wound up giving strep to our son). All I know is, he better not bring it home to me!
