Flu Season 2020

Clinics are now well underway please contact the surgery to book an appointment if you are eligible for the vaccine.

Text reminders have been sent out to our most vulnerable patients reception will only be able to book your vaccine if you have received a text or call from the surgery.

Please arrive promptly for your appointment time as clinicians will be extremely busy, We will not be able to have lots of people in the building so please remember your allocated time slot and arrive no more than 2 minutes early.

We are asking you to be vaccine ready, short sleeves with coats or cardigans being taken off before entering the clinicians room.

After you have had your vaccine please exit the building via the back door swiftly to avoid and congestion in the corridors.

Please note that, if you are aged between 50 and 64 and not in a clinical at-risk group, the earliest you will be offered a flu vaccination is November, providing there is sufficient vaccine.  No appointments will be offered for people in this age group until then. This is to ensure that those who are most at risk are vaccinated first.  If you are aged 50 to 64 and are in a clinical ‘at risk’ group which is eligible for the flu vaccination, for example you have a health condition which puts you at risk from the flu, you will be invited earlier.

We currently have a limited amount of vaccine available for the 50-64 at risk cohort.  However we are expecting further deliveries in late November.

Flu - Why am I being asked to wait to have my vaccine?
