The NHS has issued a ‘flu jab SOS’, with England’s top nurse warning people to get protected now, with only weeks to go before the worst of the flu season typically bites.

Eligible adults are being urged to come forward now, so they are fully protected ahead of the usual flu season peak in the winter months.

In response, the health service is making 2.4 million vaccination slots available next week – enough to vaccinate the whole of Greater Manchester or Botswana.

The NHS is calling on eligible adults to get their jab as soon as possible to stamp out the early wave of flu hitting the NHS more than a month earlier this year, with cases triple the same time last year.

It follows the biggest flu season in Australia’s history – often an accurate predictor of what is around the corner for people in England.
