As the colder months roll in, we’re starting to see more people coming into the pharmacy with cold and flu symptoms 🤧
The best way to help protect yourself and your whānau this season is to get vaccinated 💉
Pop in and chat with the team at Davids Pharmacy about your flu vaccination and staying well this winter ☺️
Winter is approaching. Protect yourself and your family.
Flu vaccines are available starting today, 1 April, to safeguard you and your community this winter.
Flu, Covid, and whooping cough spread more easily in colder months. Immunisation effectively reduces severe illness, hospitalisation, and the spread of winter viruses.
✅ Flu vaccines available now
✅ Covid vaccines year-round; ensure you’re up-to-date before winter
✅ Free vaccines for those aged 65+, anyone who is pregnant, and people with certain health conditions.
👶 Protect pēpi this winter
Whooping cough (pertussis) can be serious for babies. Pregnant women should get immunised to pass some immunity to newborns until they receive their own immunisations at 6 weeks. (Ensure baby's immunisations are timely!)
You can book vaccines at many pharmacies, GPs, Hauora Māori, and Pacific health providers, as well as some midwives and community vaccinators.
📅 Book your vaccination online at 👉 bookmyvaccine.health.nz
In addition to vaccination, prevent winter illness by staying home if unwell, washing hands frequently, and practicing good hygiene.
