Reminder for school Nasal Flu vaccination

Wed, 16 Aug 2023

Manx Care are reminding parents and guardians who would like their child to have the Nasal Flu Vaccine ensure that they submit their consent by Friday, September 22.

The School Vaccination team responsible for delivering the Nasal Flu Vaccine Programme will visit all schools (primary and secondary) from October 3 - November 28.

If parents/guardians have already submitted a consent form, there is no requirement for them to complete another one.

If parents/guardians would not like their child to be vaccinated, they are asked not to complete a consent form – the team will only vaccinate children for whom they have a completed consent form.

The link to the electronic consent form is below:

The School Vaccination Team can be contacted with any further queries at FluVaccinationEnquiries.DHSC@gov.im.
