Flu vaccine walk-in clinics are to open across Ireland for children aged between two and 17-years-old.
The walk-in clinics, which require no appointment, will offer the nasal flu vaccine for children. The HSE has announced the clinics due to the ongoing crisis where the number of children hospitalised with the flu continues to rise.
The vaccine will be available to children free of charge and it is also available from participating GPs and pharmacies. Parents can find details on pharmacies offering vaccinations in their area using the pharmacy finder tool.
