PEOPLE in the Burnham and Highbridge who are in one of the “at risk” categories for flu are being urged to arrange their free flu vaccination now by contacting their GP surgery.
Anyone with a long-term condition, even one that is well-managed, as well as women who are pregnant, will find themselves at greater risk of suffering from severe complications if they catch the flu.
The vaccination is the one of the most effective ways to reduce harm from flu.
