There’s still plenty of winter ahead ❄️ and it’s not too late to protect yourself and your whānau.
If you haven’t had your flu vaccination yet, now is the time. It takes around two weeks to kick in, so don’t wait until it hits your household!

Walk into your local pharmacy, phone your GP's office, or book online. Remember to check if you're eligible for a free vaccination: https://www.healthnz.govt.nz/health-topics/immunisations/booking-a-vaccine
