Q:
My daughter is immune-supressed. She will get swine-flu vaccine tomorrow. Should I keep her out of school until vaccine takes full effect?

She is healthy right now and really wants to go to school. I do not currently know of cases in her school, but her best friend's brother is home with fever. She is immune-suppressed from liver transplant in the spring. Her WBC and ANC are within normal limits, but she still takes several anti-rejection medications.
