There were nurses fired around here because the shot is mandatory and they refused. I can see both sides of it really (that is generally my problem!). On the one hand it is your body, but on the other hand you are already working with people who are sick - which makes you more likely to contract the flu and also more likely to pass it around to your patients and co-workers - not to mention taking home to your family.
