Flu Vaccinations
If you DO NOT wish to be offered a flu vaccine this year, please complete the online form. On receipt we will annotate your records accordingly.
Pneumonia Vaccination
The Streptococcus pneumonia bacterium can cause serious and life-threatening infections in those affected, regardless of age. It is commonest in the over 65s. This is a one-off jab and usually provides lifelong immunity (those without a spleen or suffering from Nephrotic Syndrome should have the jab every five years). If you are over 65 and would like a vaccination please call the Health Centre to arrange an appointment with a Practice Nurse.
Flu & Pneumonia Opt-out Form
If you do not wish to be offered a Winter 'flu vaccination or the pneumonia vaccination please complete the form here: Flu & Pneumonia opt out.
There are separate questions for both vaccinations so you can opt out of one or the other, or both if you wish.
Please note that opt out for flu would need to be done each year.
