Selborne Road Medical Centre
FLU CLINICS
Please note that due to the unprecedented challenges we are facing in delivering the vaccine safely this year we are inviting specific cohorts to planned clinics concentrating on the most at risk first.
Please be assured that we will be operating a socially distant queuing system and strict infection control measures to reduce the risk of COVID-19. You will be asked screening questions at the clinic but do not attend on the day if you or anyone in your household has any symptoms of COVID-19.
People in the 50-64-year old age group will not be vaccinated until November and December, providing there is sufficient vaccines, and no appointments will be offered for this age group until then. This is to ensure that those who are most at risk are vaccinated first. If you are 50-64 and you are in one of the other groups which are eligible for the flu vaccination, for example you have a health condition which puts you at risk from the flu, you will be invited earlier.
Coronavirus (COVID-19)
The NHS and Public Health England (PHE) are extremely well prepared for outbreaks of new infectious diseases. The NHS has put in place measures to ensure the safety of all patients and NHS staff while also ensuring services are available to the public as normal.
NHS 111 has an online coronavirus service that can tell you if you need medical help and advise you what to do.
