Get your free child flu vaccination this weekend

A walk in flu vaccination clinic for children under five will take place this weekend.

The clinic, for children aged two to four, will take place at the The Bush Doctors, 16-17 West 12 Shopping Centre, from 9am until 11am on Saturday, January 31.
The vaccination is via a single dose squirted up each nostril, so no needles are involved and no appointment is necessary.
If you're not able to make it this weekend please read this advice and contact your own GP.
Vanessa Andreae, practice nurse at the Bush Doctors surgery and member of Hammersmith & Fulham Clinical Commissioning Group’s governing body, said: “We have arranged this walk in clinic for Saturday morning so that parents don’t need to take time off work or their children out of nursery to get them protected against flu.
“Flu can be very unpleasant for anyone who gets it, and children will have the same symptoms as adults, such as a fever, aching muscles, a sore throat and a dry cough.
“It can also cause serious complications among adults and children who are ‘at risk’, such as those with long term conditions, older people or pregnant women.
“The nasal spray flu vaccine will not only help protect your child from getting flu; it will also stop them spreading the disease to the rest of your family and their friends.
“It is quick and painless, and I would encourage all parents of children in this age range to have them vaccinated against flu.”
The flu jab is available free to adults in at-risk groups. Anyone in these groups who hasn’t already had their flu jab should speak to their GP as soon as possible to arrange an appointment.
