‘I had the flu vaccine last year so I don’t need it again’

Every year the flu virus changes which means the vaccines also need to change. Getting the yearly flu vaccine will help your body create the best protection against the virus to prevent you from becoming seriously unwell.

If you’re eligible, you can get the vaccine from your Northumbria Primary Care GP practice.

Thank you for helping us create a safe winter environment.
