Understanding Flu
Flu, also known as influenza, is a highly contagious respiratory virus prevalent in the colder months. While it often resolves with rest and self-care, it poses risks of serious complications for some individuals. Our comprehensive flu service, available throughout the winter season, ensures you have access to preventive care and flu treatments right when you need them.
Why get vaccinated?
Getting the flu vaccine is a simple step you can take to protect yourself during flu season. It reduces your risk of catching the flu and ensures that if you do get sick, the symptoms won’t hit as hard. Vaccination is key in preventing serious health issues that can come from the flu, making it easier for the NHS to care for those who need it most.

Why you should get the flu jab every year

A yearly flu jab is your best bet for adapting your defenses to the flu's ever-changing nature. This quick precaution keeps you safeguarded and healthy.
Flu Vaccine Effectiveness
While it's true that no vaccine guarantees total immunity, receiving the flu vaccine significantly increases your chances of avoiding the flu. Plus, you contribute to the health of your community by reducing the risk of transmission. Remember, after your vaccination, your shield is up and running in just two weeks!
What to Expect
At your appointment, a quick vaccination in the upper arm sets you on the path to protection. Side effects, if any, are typically minimal and fleeting. Most people experience only mild reactions like: sore arm or a high temperature.
