2003 NOV 5 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- A U.S. panel has recommended that children ages 6-23 months get a flu shot. Previously, such vaccinations were only encouraged.

The recommendation by an advisory committee of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) must still be approved by the CDC. If approved, the guideline would take effect next fall. Health officials believe it will affect about 6 million children in the age group.
