Healthcare workers — protect yourself and your loved ones this winter.
Getting the flu vaccine at the start of the season is the best way to reduce your risk, stop the spread of flu, and help save lives.

You can get your flu vaccine at HSE staff clinics: https://t.co/XMqG8tjGvU

[HSE Dublin and Midlands @HSEDubMidlands]

The flu vaccine takes two weeks to become fully effective, so the best time to get vaccinated is now, before flu rates peak over the busy holiday period.

Staff can avail of their free flu and COVID-19 vaccines via local staff clinics, GPs or pharmacies.
