Autumn has arrived and carersorganisation VOCAL is urging carers to visit their GP for a free flu jab, which all unpaid adult and young carers in Scotland are entitled to though the NHS.
Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself from seasonal flu and reduce the risk of passing it on to the person you care for, family and friends. Be prepared – the earlier you get your vaccination, the better as it takes 10-14 days to work.
For more information about the flu vaccine visit the Immunisation Scotland website or call NHS Inform on 0800 22 44 88.
