    Frequently asked questions

    Can I have the flu and Covid vaccinations at the same time?

    Often they can be given at the same appointment, depending on your circumstances and the vaccines available. This will be discussed with you on the day.

    Who can have a flu/Covid vaccination?

    You will be asked about your health, medicines, allergies, and previous vaccine experiences, then you will be given clear information and aftercare advice.

    Do I need to bring anything with me?

    Bring a list of your current medicines if you have one, and be ready to mention any allergies or past vaccine reactions. Wear a top that allows easy access to your upper arm.

    Many people get mild, short-lived effects such as a sore arm, tiredness, or feeling a bit achy. You will be given guidance on what is expected and how to manage it.
