Flu is an unpredictable virus that can cause serious illness, even if you are fit and healthy. The flu vaccine is the best defense we have against it, helping to protect you, your family, and vulnerable members of the community.

Key Messages:

  • Protect Yourself: The vaccine helps protect you against flu and serious complications like bronchitis and pneumonia.
  • Protect Others: By getting vaccinated, you help protect more vulnerable friends, family, and colleagues who are at higher risk.
  • Avoid Lost Opportunities: If you get flu, you may be unwell for several days and not able to do the things you enjoy, like work or school.
  • It’s Safe and Effective: Millions worldwide have had the vaccine, which has an excellent safety record. The vaccine may also make your illness milder if you do still get sick.
