Flu Vaccinations Posted or Updated on 19 Dec 2024

Flu hit hospitals in England even harder last week, as a ‘tidal wave’ of infections led to a 70% increase in hospital cases across just 7 days.

The NHS is encouraging eligible people to get vaccinated without delay if they haven’t done so already to avoid “festive flu” with an average of 1,861 patients with flu in hospital every day last week – up from 1,099 in the previous week and a staggering 3.5 times higher compared to the same time last year.

If you are over 65 or under 65 with a Chronic Disease, please book for a “Flu Vaccine” either via the APP or contact the surgery.  Further Clinics have been added on the 7^th & 10^th January at The Healthcare Centre
