It may be Halloween but the flu vaccine won’t make you scream

October 31, 2018

Are you putting off having your vaccine because you think it might hurt?

The effects of contracting flu will cause you much more discomfort than having the vaccine. Most people tell us that they don’t even feel anything.

Today we hear from our Chief Pharmacist, Pun Sharma who tells us more about the make-up of the flu vaccine and about the most common side effect.

Did you know that you will also be rewarded for having you vaccine?  As well as a lollypop or chocolate, you will also be given a voucher which will entitles you to £1 off in any of our catering outlets. Alternatively you can tick the box on your voucher to donate your £1 to Your Trust Charity.

Please note that the FluMobile will be visiting Rowley Regis Hospital 1 November at 9am and will be onsite for approximately 60 minutes.

Note: The flu vaccine does not contain any pork or meat product or derivatives.
