๐ŸŒŸ Help the UK Health Security Agency Track Winter Bugs From Home ๐ŸŒŸ

Ever wondered how the UK keeps an eye on flu and COVID-19 in real time? FluSurvey is a simple online tool that allows people to voluntarily share how theyโ€™re feeling each week โ€” whether theyโ€™re well or under the weather.

By taking part, youโ€™d be helping UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) understand how respiratory illnesses are spreading in the community, including among people who donโ€™t usually visit their GP when theyโ€™re sick. Your weekly update only takes a few minutes and helps build a clearer picture of whatโ€™s happening across the country.

๐Ÿงก Taking part is completely up to you โ€” thereโ€™s no obligation, and you can stop at any time. Every single person who chooses to join helps make the data more accurate and useful.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ป FluSurvey was first created during the 2009 swine flu pandemic and is now part of InfluenzaNet, a Europe-wide project monitoring flu-like illnesses through standardised community surveys.

If youโ€™re interested in contributing โ€” in your own time and on your own terms โ€” you can learn more or sign up by clicking below

Thank you to everyone who chooses to get involved. Your contribution, big or small, truly makes a difference. ๐Ÿ’™

Help us monitor the flu and other respiratory infections in the UK today.

๐Ÿ’™ Get the right care, faster ๐Ÿ’™

Lots of people still head straight to A&E or call the GP for minor issues โ€” but there are quicker options this winter:

โœ”๏ธ Pharmacy First โ€“ help and treatment for common illnesses

โœ”๏ธ NHS App / GP online โ€“ request help without the 8am rush
โœ”๏ธ Urgent Treatment Centres โ€“ for non-life-threatening injuries & illnesses

๐Ÿ›‘ A&E and 999 are for life-threatening emergencies only

Choosing the right service means youโ€™re seen faster โ€” and helps keep A&E and GP phone lines free for those who need it most. ๐Ÿ’™

Follow four people with four different health concerns as they get the NHS care they need โ€“ quickly and easily, without A&E. Get the right care, in the righ...

๐Ÿ’‰ Flu season is here โ€“ protect yourself and your loved ones! ๐Ÿ’™

Experts are warning that this could be a bad flu season, with cases already rising across the UK. Flu can cause serious illness, especially for older adults, pregnant women, children, and those with long-term health conditions.

If you're eligible, please watch out for your invitation or contact your GP surgery to get booked in for your flu vaccination today. Help keep us all healthier this winter. ๐Ÿ’™

Leading flu experts say they will not be surprised if this year's is the worst flu season for a decade.
