Get Your Vaccine, not the Flu
- Flu season in Ireland is from October to April each year and flu is highly contagious.
- If you are vaccinated by October you give yourself and those around you the best chance of avoiding the flu, especially those most at risk – the old, the young and people with immune weakness.
- Your body takes up to 2 weeks to develop flu immunity after vaccination, lasting typically from 6 months up to 2 years against targeted strains.
- Flu viruses mutate so new vaccines are developed each year-that’s why you need a new vaccine every September/October to maximise your chances of staying flu-free.
- We know no-one likes injections but our highly skilled healthcare teams are trained to minimise any discomfort.
