Bill approached Congress with a Proposal that stated in essence that if you remove those two features an ...

Baltimore hospitals, doctors' offices and long-term Care facilities would have to report the rates of influenza vaccination among their workers under new regulations being proposed by the city Health Department. Low vaccination rates among Health Care workers can contribute to flu outbreaks, and informal studies of Baltimore hospitals found vaccination rates varied from 35 percent to 71 percent, with none reaching the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's recommendation for 80 percent coverage, according to the Health Department. If the regulation is approved, Health Care facilities would have to report on the percentage of employees who get vaccinated and the reasons that other employees declined to do so. The department will accept public comments on the Proposal through Sept. 24. Written comments can be sent to: Dr. Laura Herrera, 210 Guilford Ave., 3rd Floor, Baltimore 21202. ...
