No flu shots for ER staffs, Nurse predicts decision will lead to 'disaster:"San Mateo County is so low on flu vaccine that emergency-room doctors and nurses will not be offered shots this year, a situation they say will exacerbate a nursing shortage in local hospitals once the virus starts making its rounds.
"If we are ill and unable to work, there are no replacement nurses available," said Laura Grgich, a registered nurse who works in the ER at Seton Medical Center. "We see a disaster waiting to happen this flu season with this situation."
