No one likes getting vaccines - poor Stevie definitely didn't like getting his flu shot last month!
But even he knows that vaccines are good for him to help prevent the spread of flu and other nasty diseases, so he wrote to our nurse Victoria afterwards to let her know that it really hadn't hurt that much.
We still have flu vaccines available for kids 5 and under (and others in high-risk groups, including people with certain medical conditions which increase the risk of complications from flu such as asthma, diabetes and suffers of lung or heart disease or low immunity, as well as all people over the age of 65, pregnant women and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders).
PS. More flu vaccines for the rest of the community should be available later this month - stay tuned for updates.
