Chickenpox vaccination.

The NHS has recently introduced a combined Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella (chickenpox) vaccine into the childhood vaccination programme.

We are seeing increased interest from parents wanting to get their child vaccinated when they have fallen outside of the qualifying age or are older and have not had chickenpox infection.

Booking is easy using the link below.

The course is two vaccinations at least one month apart.

🦠 It’s not too late to protect yourself against flu 🦠

If you haven’t had your flu vaccination yet, there’s still time! Getting vaccinated now provides crucial protection for the rest of the flu season and helps reduce the spread to vulnerable people around you.

Flu is more than just a bad cold. Symptoms can include:
• High temperature
• Severe aches and pains
• Extreme tiredness and weakness
• Headaches and chills
• Cough and sore throat

For vulnerable groups including older adults, those with long-term health conditions, pregnant women, and young children - flu can lead to serious complications, hospitalisation, and in some cases, life-threatening illness.

📍 Flu vaccinations available at Cyncoed Pharmacy
• Book online at a time that suits you

• Walk-in service available this Thursday 8th & Friday 9th January

Protect yourself. Protect others. Get your flu jab today.

Cyncoed Pharmacy has for a number of years offered a private Chicken Pox vaccine service.

Finally from today in the UK, children over 12 months will be given a chicken pox vaccine as part of the MMR vaccine NHS service.

There will be a catch up programme for children up to the age of 6.

If you have a child over 6 (who has not had chicken pox) you may wish to consider a private vaccination. This is also the case for parents with a child between 1 Year & 6 Years who don’t want to wait for ‘catch up’ which may be a number of years away.

Book using the link below if you wish to book a Chicken Pox vaccine for your children.
