Getting the flu shot every year is your best protection against the flu
Flu shots are available from your GP team or some pharmacists – you may even qualify to get it for free.
Check out this new website – www.flufree.co.nz. It has useful and myth-busting facts, an interactive ‘build a germ’ game for kids (and big kids), information about where you can get vaccinated, and resources like downloadable posters, screensavers, social media tiles, information for newsletters and email signatures you can use.
If you are part of a sports or social club, church group, or iwi, a knitting circle, bee-keepers club, kids’ play-group, walking or cycling group – ask your friends and family: have you had your flu shot? Protect yourself, your whānau and help us spread the word.
