There are no Federal Laws against it's being made mandatory in the US. During the Swine Flu pandemic, New York created a law that did require mandatory flu vaccinations for those who worked in health care settings, such as hospitals and nursing homes, to protect the patients from exposure that put them at risk of complications and death in their vulnerable states. Some health care institutions and other types of companies also required that employees who worked in specific jobs, especially with the ill, had to take the flu shot. Some of those employers allowed work reassignment to a different position away from patients for employees who could not take the vaccines due to contraindications or Allergies. It can be a valid job requirement and then it provides a decision and choice on the part of employees whether to continue employment or to take different employment instead of getting the vaccine.
The safety and effectiveness of flu vaccines has been proven over decades of use with very few untoward reactions or events reported other than allergic reactions, so the risk of your having a problem from the flu vaccination is much much lower than the risk of your giving a deadly disease to vulnerable patients or infants who could die from it, because you did not protect yourself.

It is not currently mandatory in the US, although it is highly recommended that all who can, should get the vaccine, especially if they are among the groups at high risk for complications from this A-H1N1/09 influenza (see below for list of these groups).There are some countries that have made the vaccination mandatory unless there are medical contraindications for their use.

They don't shoot you, and it isn't a 'shot' of a drink, it's a needle in the arm. In the 2009-2010 flu season there was a mist as well as a shot for the vaccination for swine flu. In the 2010-2011 flu season the vaccine for swine flu protection is included in the one vaccination for the seasonal flu.

Is the Swine Flu shot worth getting?
yeah. The question is not getting the swine flu shot worth your life? The swine flu is like a regular cold if u get it it will clear up eventually. If u get the shot which has lead & other harmful stuff it will harm u later in life. Think about it they came up with the vaccine 2 soon
How many people survived the Swine Flu by using taking the shot?
"The shot" is a vaccine for the swine flu. If you get the vaccine, then, in theory, you don't get the swine flu. If you didn't get it, then you didn't "survive" it, because "surviving" it means that you got the disease but didn't die from it. So, zero is the answer. On the other hand, the swine flu is no more deadly than the common flu, so the vast majority of the people who got the swine flu survived it.
Should everyone get the swine flu shot?
It depends on what they review. It may not be healthy for you
