Did you know that the timing of your 'flu vaccination is very important?
The 'flu (influenza) bug is most virulent in the middle of winter, so your 'Flu vaccination should be timed so that it will be most effective when most needed. This means you should be getting your vaccine sometime in the Autumn. It takes about two weeks to become effective.
DVMP makes a special effort to ensure that their vaccination programme is optimised so that you will get your call for your jab at the correct time of year (for those eligible). Be sure to book your appointment as soon as you are notified.
