Why get the flu vaccine?
The flu can be serious, especially for children. Everyone 6 months and older is recommended to get the annual flu vaccine.

Babies and toddlers need special protection from the flu, and the vaccine is just as important as other routine childhood vaccines. It helps protect them from the most common flu strains.

The vaccine protects you, your family, and the community. It also helps reduce the risk of severe illnesses and flu-related complications. The vaccine is free for eligible priority groups.

Free flu vaccine is available for:
Children aged 6 months to under 5 years from your doctor (GP) or local council immunisation service
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 6 months and older
Adults aged 65 years and older
Pregnant women (at any stage of pregnancy)
Individuals with certain medical conditions that increase the risk of severe flu.

High blood pressure
High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is the most important known risk factor for stroke.

Blood pressure measures how hard your blood pushes against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps it around your body.

Normal blood pressure is around 120/80. If your blood pressure is regularly over 140/90, you have high blood pressure.

High blood pressure puts strain on blood vessels throughout the body, including the arteries that supply the brain. This means the heart has to work much harder to keep the blood circulation going.

High blood pressure can lead to a stroke in several ways:

It damages blood vessel walls, weakening them.
It can speed up common forms of heart disease.
It can cause blood clots or plaques to break off the artery walls and block a brain artery.

The higher the blood pressure, the greater the stroke risk.

❤️ It’s Heart Week — let’s have a heart‑to‑heart at EUFS Pharmacies
This Heart Week, we’re inviting our community to drop into EUFS Pharmacies for a friendly, supportive chat with our pharmacists about your heart health.
Understanding your risk today can help protect your heart for years to come.

A great place to start is knowing what a healthy blood pressure reading looks like and what your own numbers mean. Preventing heart disease begins with understanding your risk factors and making small, positive lifestyle changes that add up over time.

Here are some simple, powerful ways to look after your heart:

Follow a heart‑healthy eating pattern
Choose more whole foods, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and healthy fats.

Move more
Regular physical activity helps keep your heart strong.

Maintain a healthy weight
Even small changes can make a big difference to your heart health.

Be smoke‑free
Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for your heart.

Avoid or reduce alcohol
Cutting back supports healthier blood pressure and overall wellbeing.

Manage stress and mental well-being
A calmer mind supports a healthier heart.

Our pharmacists are here to guide you, answer questions, and help you understand your numbers and your next steps. No appointments needed — just pop in for a heart‑to‑heart.

World Immunisation Week, celebrated in the last week of April, aims to promote the life-saving power of immunisation to protect people of all ages against vaccine-preventable diseases.

Vaccines have long been one of the most powerful tools in public health. Over the last 50 years, vaccines have saved more than 150 million lives not by accident, but because ordinary people chose to protect themselves, their children, and one another. That’s 6 lives every minute, every day, for five decades.

Health workers rolling up sleeves, parents bringing their children to health clinics, communities showing up, and generations deciding that preventing infectious diseases, such as measles, diphtheria, pertussis and polio, is worth it.

Those choices to vaccinate have contributed to a 40% improvement in infant survival during that time and protected tens of millions of children from lifelong disabilities. More children now live to see their first birthday – and grow up, fall in love, have families, and grow old together.

This year’s World Immunisation Week theme, “For every generation, vaccines work”, aims to promote how vaccines have safely protected people, families, and communities for generations – and continue to safeguard our future.
