Influenza vaccinations

flu vaccination

Each year influenza (flu) vaccine is developed to protect you against the most common strains of influenza. Influenza disease can be very serious leading to complications such as pneumonia, myocarditis (inflammation of the heart), neurological conditions and other bacterial infections.

The flu vaccine is recommended for any person six months of age and over who wishes to reduce the likelihood of becoming ill with the flu.*

Free influenza vaccinations are available for all University staff and higher degree students. Human Resources has arranged these through the Pharmacy Guild Corporate Program. More information and to book.
