Parents across Glasgow are being urged to ensure that their child is vaccinated against the flu as winter approaches. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC) are warning that the flu can be much more serious than people think, even for healthy children and young people.
Children who are protected by the vaccine are less likely to need time off from nursery or childcare, as well as being less likely to pass along flu to others who are more vulnerable. NHSGGC has confirmed that letters have been sent out to children aged two to five who are not yet in school, giving them their appointment time.
