Information from Public Health Derbyshire on Flu vaccines & how to help keep you and your family well this winter
Wed 26 Oct 2022Flu vaccines to help keep you and your family well this winter
Information for parents and carers
Having a flu vaccine if you are eligible and able to have it, is an important way to help protect yourself, your family and those you have contact with from flu infection. It is expected there will be high levels of flu germs circulating this year so, it is particularly important to take up the offer of a vaccine. This will help reduce the risk of illness within your family.
GP’s will again be inviting all 2- and 3-year-old children to have a flu vaccination. This vaccination, like all other routine childhood vaccinations is free, so you do not need to pay.
Information is available to help parents/carers understand the facts about why having their child vaccinated against flu, visit Flu: 5 reasons to get your child vaccinated (publishing.service.gov.uk)
More information for parents/carers is available at Protecting your child against flu; Information for parents and carers (publishing.service.gov.uk)
Information is also available in different formats and languages are available here Flu vaccination for children: leaflets and posters - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

Information for Pregnant women
For any parents/carers and staff that are pregnant, please encourage them to look at https://www.nhs.uk/pregnancy/keeping-well/vaccinations/
Vaccines are available to help to protect both mother and baby. Complications from infection are more likely in pregnancy, as those who are pregnant are not able to fight off infection easily.
