Because they are trying to prevent as many flu complications as they can, if you end up in hospital you may catch sars-cov-2 as well

Apparently I've been entitled to a free flu vaccine for years, my GP has never bothered to tell me let alone invite me.

So Notherners inherently avoid medical advice to help save their lives??

Or alternatively you could just behave like a grown up and stop pretending there is some kind of regional machismo that prevents you from getting an injection.

Potentially it could kill people especially people like me who are on immune suppressing tablets and a good dose of the flu could be potentially fatal for me and others who have underlying health issues

They're trying to get all the flu shots done as quickly as possible so the staff will be freed up for the Covid vaccine coming soon.

Watch this space as they say.

I have had my flu jab this is the first time I have had it. There are idiots all over the country that don't want to abide by the rules, a good majority of them are under 35 but not all. I am following all the rules even though they were too late or not enough,I'm a member of the older generation in fact as if Monday I'm an OAP. So I'm more at risk just follow the rules even though most are crap and we will all get through this

Following all the rules does not equate to using common sense. You only have to look at people piling into pubs ( legally), just before they are locked down, is that sensible? Honestly?

The one virus any governments fear more than sars, mers or covid is Flu as it is so unprodictable.

To clarify, a flu jab will not guarantee you will survive flu, it does not stop you getting it, it just means your potential survival rate is higher and you'll have a better chance of being kept alive with treatment.

Flu is bloody dangerous, and has been proven in the past, those most susceptible can change, 1919 was older generations, 1967/68 younger generations, both occasions killed more than covid has done to date.

The blessing of the internet is that we can now all panic much easier about what is happening outside our own circle!

I've not heard what Op had, so I'm assuming that it was the NHS push to get high levels of flu vaccine take up this year.

As flu and covid-19 will both increase in potential prevalence this winter, the easiest of the 2 to minimise is flu, via vaccines.

If flu infections soar, whilst covid-19 does too, the NHS will be overloaded, affecting treatment quality and levels for all health conditions.

Flu vaccines are cheap and have accepted levels of effectiveness. Reaching herd immunity levels is possible too. If not eligible for a free NHS vaccine, they cost about £10, which a fair few people will afford, especially as it could help to safeguard their income, should they get sick.

Some ads work on grabbing attention and some people are motivated by reducing their level of risk. They may be different to you but if we achieve low flu levels this year, we will suppress suffering

'Basically saying...' ...so not saying then...

Perhaps if there weren't so many idiots posting stupid crap all over the place, the NHS wouldn't need to advertise.

I think the North is fucked up because there's so many idiots nothing to do with rebelling. I live in Hartlepool and sad to say its the 16 to 30 who dnt give a shit. So let them all get on with it and spread it amongst themselves then maybe us older ones can enjoy the rest of our lives. Because north or south most of us are sensible and I speak from both as I lived in the South 40 yes. Northern people are not exempt or special we are all vulnerable. Educate your teens muppet

Apparantly the make up of the flu vaccines varies from year to year so it is difficult to project what if any the side effects will be., this years jab will be my 15th and am happy to say I have never encountered any side effects.
