For everyone who has the misconception that the flu vaccine is only for the elderly:

However, flu can be more severe in certain people such as:
- anyone over the age of 65
- pregnant women
- children and adults with an underlying health condition (particularly long-term heart or respiratory disease)
- children and adults with weakened immune systems

The flu vaccine is given free on the NHS as an annual injection to:
- adults over the age of 18 at risk of flu (including everyone over 65)
- children aged six months to two years at risk of flu
I don't get it but some members of my family get it every year just to be safe.
Nope, but I did have it last year, the hospital gave me a bunch of jabs 'cos I wasn't allowed to get sick ;P
