Here’s an update from NHS Grampian on the local flu vaccination programme which has seen more than 52,000 people vaccinated (as at 5pm tonight). The target is about 225,000 people.
A new helpline – 0345 3379899 – has now been set up which will be capable of managing a much higher number of calls.
However people are asked to await their letter (being sent out over a three week period) before contacting the helpline.
The immunisation programme for flu is designed to be delivered over three months – October to December.
