Flu vaccination preparations
Take the online poll to let us know if you would like a flu vaccination or not…
As you know, the NHS is planning a large flu vaccination programme this winter in preparation for an increase in demand due to COVID-19. We want to know if you would like to have the flu vaccine when it is available. This is so we can make plans to meet the need within the CCG.
Take the quick online poll to let us know if you would like to have the flu vaccine or not or if you’re undecided.
We can’t guarantee a flu vaccine will be available or when it will be available. However, your feedback will help us plan ahead.
In the meantime, GPs will continue to invite those who are vulnerable to have the vaccine first as in previous years. Once these patients have had the vaccination the offer will open up to people aged between 50 and 64, possibly from November 2020.
The CCG flu vaccination programme will run alongside that once all those who are vulnerable have had their vaccinations.
Finally, so you’re up-to-date, we have a Flu vaccination – Keep calm and carry on poster which we’ve shared with our GPs. It advises people to keep calm around the extended eligibility.
