🧠 Did You Know?
A child under five is over 5× more likely to be hospitalised with flu than someone aged over 65
❌ Myth: “Flu is just a bad cold.
Flu symptoms come on suddenly, often with high fever, fatigue, and body aches – much more severe than a cold.
✅ Fact: Flu vaccines help protect others too
Even if you’re healthy, getting vaccinated helps protect vulnerable people in your community.
🧴 Fact: Flu spreads easily!
Flu viruses can live on surfaces for 24 hours – handwashing matters.
💉 Myth: “The flu vaccine gives you flu"
Not true! Flu vaccines don’t contain live virus (except nasal spray, which is weakened and safe)

Autumn COVID-19 Booster 2025

Eligible patients, especially those aged 75+ or immunocompromised are encouraged to get the updated COVID-19 vaccine this autumn.

Some patients may require a second dose 6 months after the first for optimal protection.

Enhanced Protection

✅ Stronger defence against serious illness from COVID-19

Long COVID Risk Reduction

❤️ May reduce your risk of lingering symptoms or complications.

Variant Coverage

🧬 Updated vaccine provides better protection against emerging strains.

Can I get the flu and COVID jab together?

Yes – where available, both vaccines can be given in the same appointment (usually one in each arm).

You can book via the National Booking System (NBS) or call 119

    Always friendly, efficient and helpful. Excellent service when we recently had our covid jabs. They have completely turned this chemist around since the last owners. Brilliant and thank you.
