Flu Vaccine in Liverpool & Southport
Getting the flu vaccine in Liverpool & Southport is a wise choice. Whether you’re worried about catching the flu, missing work, or protecting vulnerable family members, the flu vaccine offers protection and peace of mind. At Healthy Living Pharmacies Ltd, we provide both NHS and private flu vaccines in Liverpool & Southport.
The Importance of the Flu Vaccine
Flu vaccination is crucial because, while flu may be mild for many, it can be severe or even life-threatening for some, especially those with certain health conditions. The best time to get vaccinated is in autumn or early winter before flu begins to spread, but you can still get your vaccine later.
Eligibility for the NHS Flu Vaccine
The NHS flu vaccine is available for:
- Adults aged 65 and over
- Individuals with specific medical conditions (including at-risk children from 6 months of age)
- Pregnant women
- Those living with high-risk individuals (on the NHS shielded patient list)
- Frontline health or social care workers
Eligibility criteria may change based on NHS guidelines. This information is accurate at the time of writing and may be updated according to NHS guidelines. If you’re not eligible for a free NHS flu vaccine, we offer private flu vaccinations for both under and over 50s.
Who Shouldn’t Have the Vaccine?
Most people can receive the flu vaccine, but there are exceptions:
- If you are currently unwell with a fever, delay getting the vaccine.
- If you have an egg allergy, consult your GP or pharmacist before vaccination.
