🤧 Flu cases are currently high

Don’t leave it to chance - If you’re eligible, please book a flu vaccination.

It you are in an eligible group then you are one of the most at risk patients

IT’s NOT TOO LATE - your vaccine is still available

If you are NOT eligible for a Flu vaccine and are unlucky enough to find yourself with Flu,
most cases can be managed at home and it is important that you protect others that may be more vulnerable than yourself

Here are some tips:

🌈 Rest and sleep
🌈 Keep warm
🌈 Take ibuprofen or paracetamol for fever
🌈 Drink plenty of fluids

You can help to reduce the spread by

🌈 Staying home if unwell
🌈 Avoiding contact with vulnerable people
🌈 Covering coughs/sneezes, wash hands, 🌈 clean surroundings

☎️ 01706 641 409 - for your Flu vaccine appointment at the practice

Whether you have your flu vaccine or not is your decision

Please….
Make sure that it is an informed decision and read about it before deciding

If you DO decide to have the vaccine, please come to YOUR surgery as we have bought a vaccine for you and it is there if you decide to be vaccinated

If after reading the facts you decide NOT to go ahead then that’s fine … but if you choose to be vaccinated …. Your vaccine will be destroyed and money surgery wasted if you choose to go elsewhere

Thank you for your support

Norovirus is a winter stomach bug that causes vomiting and diarrhoea. It’s a nasty bug, but usually goes away in around 2-3 days.

Make sure you stay hydrated by drinking lots and get plenty of rest. Stay off school or work until you have not been sick or had diarrhoea for at least 2 days, so you don’t pass it on to others. Please don’t visit hospitals or care homes while you are unwell.
