Help us protect our kids from the flu
For the 2nd year running, I have been desperately trying to arrange for flu vaccinations for all my family, including my children.
Again, all the main pharmacies will vaccinate adults quite happily for around £10, but WILL NOT VACCINATE CHILDREN.
It's ridiculous that children are the ones most likely to spread the flu around at school, and yet we can protect ourselves and not them.
We're not expecting any form of handout here. There are vast numbers of us willing to pay, but the big companies, Like Boots, Bupa and Lloyds refuse to administer to children, saying it is legislation stopping them (untrue).
Please help us to protect our children from this potentially fatal and easily preventable disease.
One solution might be to arrange for GP surgeries to provide vaccinations, for a similar fee, so we can protect our kids. Alternately, provide a Government-approved scheme for children via the major companies.
Please act fast, before another child dies for no reason.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
