Winter Wellness Immunisations
Tiakina koutou ko tō whānau, Protect yourself and your whānau!
The flu vaccine is the best protection against the main flu viruses this winter, although there's still a chance you might get the flu.
Getting immunised now helps to stop the spread of flu in your whānau and those more likely to experience severe illness from the flu.
The flu vaccine is free for people at higher risk of getting very sick from the flu including:
o Kaumātua aged 65 years and over
o People that have a long-term medical condition like diabetes, asthma, or a heart condition (ages 6 months+)
o Hapu māmā / pregnant people
o Tamariki aged 4 years and under, who have been hospitalised for respiratory illness or have a history of significant respiratory illness
o Whaiora / people with mental health conditions, including schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, or schizoaffective disorder
o Whānau who are currently accessing secondary or tertiary mental health and addiction services.
