Vaccine now available - this year with 2 varieties. One for older people on NHS and the other for anyone else. I paid for one for years when self-employed. And I'll be getting my free one in local pharmacy next week. Avoids queues and hanging around in surgery waiting room. My local pharmacy have a cheap offer for first few weeks of £8.99 for those who pay. I'm champing at the bit to have mine as I am having treatment for breast cancer and my immune system is consequently weak. I wish the NHS would remind working people that for a small payment they can protect themselves. Even for the fittest people, influenza is a horrible illness that ruins best part of a month and sufferers would probably pay a tenner just to make it stop for a single hour. And if enough people got the jab it would reduce the spread of flu in the community and take some pressure off the NHS.
