Free flu jabs

As the influenza season approaches, the Health Division is offering people the possibility to get vaccinated for free.

The division explained that it had some stock left over after vaccinating people who were eligible to take the jab for free and it was offering it to the public. Normally the vaccine is offered for free to all over 55-year-olds and those who suffer from chronic conditions, but this offer is open to everyone.

People can get vaccinated at government health centres in their locality from 8.30 a.m. to 1 p.m. between Monday and Saturday until stocks last.
