Title: Flu Jab?
Post by: frankie on 05 Nov, 2020, 02:41:34 pm

Does anyone know if this is available yet?  I have been told that letters are not being sent out this year...

I'm certainly not going to have one. It's reportedly just a mish mash guess of what they use as it's impossible to identify what is needed for the strain in any one year.

I agree Ramblagirl, last year they got the wrong one

It changes every year according to what strain is doing the rounds.  I am more than happy to get it...  Having had 'PROPER'  flu and not just a heavy cold back in the late 60's, I do not want it again and even if the flu jab is just 5% correct, I would rather take the chance...

Local Farmacia has just told me the jab is now in and being given...
