Seasonal Flu Vaccinations

13/08/2009

The annual flu vaccination campaign against 'normal' seasonal flu begins in September.  As usual we will have drop in sessions from 9.00am to 11.30am on the following Saturdays:

Woolpack House	19th September and 3rd October
South Bank	26th September and 10th October

Please note that invitations letters are no longer sent to eligible patients so do attend one of the Drop In Saturday clinics.

You are entitled to a 'flu jab...

• If you are 65 years old or over
• If you have chronic health problems with heart, kidneys, lungs or liver
• If you have diabetes
• If you have a weak immune system
• If you are a carer for an elderly or disabled person
• Poultry workers - especially if you handle live birds

To find out if you are entitled to a flu jab, and when the drop-in sessions are being held during September and October 2009 read and download our latest newsletter. 

If in doubt or if you feel you are 'at risk' consult a member of the clinical team for advice.
