For most people swine flu causes a mild illness, lasting for a few days. However people who have a weakened immune system due to a health condition or pregnancy are at greater risk of more serious health problems if they catch flu. These people are being prioritised to receive the swine flu vaccine to protect them.
The swine flu vaccination is also available to children between 6 months and 5 years old as children in this age group are more likely to be hospitalised if they get swine flu.
We run a swine flu vaccination clinic
