Director of Public Health urges people to get flu jabs
The director of Public Health is warning we could face a 'double-whammy' Covid and flu season as we enter the Autumn & Winter months.
Last year flu cases fell significantly, in part due to lockdown and Covid restrictions across the water, leading to fears cases this year could spike.
Dr Ewart is urging people to get their flu vaccines:
