Expert Advice & Top Tips
Who benefits most from a flu jab?
Many people gain extra protection with an annual flu jab. You should consider vaccination if you:
- Are aged 65 or over
- Work in health or social care
- Care for older or disabled relatives
- Live with someone immunocompromised
Best time to get vaccinated
Aim to book between October and early December for optimal coverage. A later appointment still boosts immunity but may slightly reduce protection during peak season.
