Flu vaccinations
-
Influenza or flu is a highly infectious illness caused by a virus. Like other viral infections, influenza does not respond to antibiotics. It tends to start suddently with symptoms such as fever, chills, headache, aching muscles and feeling generally unwell, together with a cough or sore throat. Symptoms are much more severe than a simple head cold, although people sometimes mistakenly call a heavy cold 'flu' It is important that we minimise the effect of influenza this winter. The immunisation of people aged 65 and over, and younger people in 'at risk' groups is an effective preventive measure, which we strongly recommend. People in 'at risk' groups include those with - chronic heart or chest complaint (including asthma), - chronic kidney disease, - diabetes, - lowered immunity due to disease or treatment such as steriod medication or cancer treatment, - patients who have had a splenectomy. Healthy people under 65 years of age do not need to be vaccinated. Influenza is not usually as serious for them as those listed above. The above are the recommendations of the Department of Health and the Doctor at Chapel Street Surgery.
