We are expecting our 1st grandchild in October. I was just informed by my husband that our daughter called him in tears 6 weeks ago because her doctor is insisting that all members of the family that will be around the child must get a flu shot. Our daughter unfortunately is a liberal and will follow that rule but she also knows how I feel about vaccines. My husband has known about this for 6 weeks but has been afraid to mention it to me because he knew I was not going to like it. This has put me in a horrible position. My husband even said that if I wanted to lie to her and tell her I got the shot, he would go along with it. I told him absolutely not! I am not going to lie. I promised my husband that I would do it but not without doing some investigation first. I don’t even know how to start investigation on this. Do any of you know if there is a way to figure out if there are different flu shots out there and how to know which pharma company is behind them? Any advice would be much appreciated.

First off; Congrats & bless you & yours on the new grandchild. :-)
Next; I'm about the same as any of you as far as my view on the covid shot.
I AM in fact "fully vaxxed"; any vaccine that was released & common / required among kids born in the 60s / 70s / 80s; I took all those when I was a kid.
That said; our doc did the same thing to us with the birth of our 1st child; req'd flu shot.
I have never gotten a flu shot in my life, but I did it. Grudgingly. Granted, this was a couple years before covid, but....still......
I'd just do it & save your breath for another inevitable battle.... JMHO, and again; from someone who is 100% on your side as far as my view of the mRNA experimental medical procedures.....
