We now have flu vaccine available in the health centre.
Influenza is a serious illness with severe effects which can result in hospitalisation and even death. Influenza can affect anyone, no matter how fit, active or healthy you may be. You must be immunised every year as the flu virus is always changing.
If you have a chronic medical condition such as asthma or diabetes you may be entitled to a free vaccination. If you are not entitled to a funded vaccine the cost is $11.
Please come into the health centre to make an appointment or email Su on su.davies@whitireia.ac.nz or phone (04) 2373131.
