The Centre for Health Protection says seasonal influenza vaccination is one effective way to reduce influenza and its complications. The 2026/27 programme includes different arrangements for older adults, pregnant women, children, people with chronic illness and other groups.

Before making an appointment

  • Check whether you belong to an eligible or priority group.
  • Ask the participating doctor or clinic about the current service, appointment arrangements and any additional charges.
  • Tell the healthcare professional about allergies, previous vaccine reactions, pregnancy and relevant medical conditions.

Programme details can change. Use the official CHP page below rather than relying on an old poster or social-media message. This article is general information and does not replace advice from your doctor.
