How to know if i have to get a flu shot since my husband is in the military or can i refuse?

The military: will not dictate that you (as a dependent) have to have an influenza vaccine. However the CDC states: 'All people 6 months of age and older should get flu vaccine.' You can check site at: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/vis/downloads/vis-flu.pdf.
