#Jabathon launched to boost take up of flu vaccinations for health professionals

NHS Employers has launched this year’s campaign, targeting NHS staff to ensure they get vaccinated for the winter €˜flu season. Cutting the number of flu infections among frontline health and social care staff is paramount, as they have the greatest exposure to vulnerable people such as the elderly and the very young, and the best way to do so is to make sure these staff get vaccinated. With that in mind, NHS Employers has launched the latest run of its successful flu fighter campaign, aiming to boost flu vaccination uptake among health and social care staff as much as possible.
