PHA urges ‘at-risk’ groups to get the flu jab as cases continue to occur

The Public Health Agency (PHA) is urging all those in ‘at-risk’ groups, who have not yet been vaccinated against flu, to get the jab now given recent cases in a small number of nursing homes across the UK and Ireland. The PHA is working closely with one home in Northern Ireland which has seen a rise in cases since March 30. The residents affected are either recovered or are recovering.
