Obtaining an NHS flu vaccine from a pharmacy

Feedback from our members indicates that most pharmacies are, as in previous years, happy to provide a free NHS flu vaccine to people with ME/CFS who choose to have one.

When one of our members was recently refused a free flu jab at a pharmacy, she contacted the superintendent pharmacist - who confirmed that a mistake had been made and that she can have a free flu jab.

We have been given permission to use part of the very comprehensive information and apology she received - as this may be helpful if anyone else is refused a flu jab from a pharmacy.

N.B. It is a personal choice whether to have the Flu vaccination. This information may help you obtain a free NHS Flu vaccination if you have ME/CFS and decide to have one.
