Flu In Children Is Increasing - Get Them Vaccinated Now

30th November 2022

This year flu is hitting more children as during the covid pandemic less resistance has been built up.

Flu is caused by the influenza virus. It can be a very unpleasant illness for children. It can also lead to serious problems, such as bronchitis and pneumonia.

Children can catch and spread flu easily. Vaccinating them also protects others who are vulnerable to flu, such as babies and older people.
