Why Should You Get the Flu Jab?

Flu is more than just a bad cold. It can come on quickly and make you feel very unwell for days. Some people recover within a week, but others can develop more serious health issues like pneumonia or chest infections. Flu can be especially risky for older adults or anyone with long-term conditions.

You can get the flu at any time of year, but it spreads more easily between September and March. It’s best to get vaccinated before the weather turns cold, but even later in the season, the jab still offers valuable protection for up to 12 months.
