The 2020/21 Islington GP flu resource pack is available to download (see Downloads, right).
Read the Islington childhood flu vaccine facts document for more information. This has been developed by your local public health team, to help answer any questions and queries about the flu vaccine.
This NCL CCG webpage lists frequently asked patient questions and answers, alongside resources that practices will find useful
Below are some highlights of the 2020/21 flu resources available to practices
Twitter messages: NCL CCG has been asked to share social media materials for practices that use Twitter to communicate with their patients. There are five Tweets, with accompanying images. Links in each Tweet go to the microsite where items such as the animations in different languages are held.
Animations: North Central London Clinical Commissioning Group has produced some animations to encourage people to get their flu vaccinations, one for adults and one for parents and children. The animations are also available with subtitles and will soon be available on the NCL YouTube channel in different languages.
Children with allergies: For children with egg allergy/anaphylaxis concern see this guidance, email referral letter to David Elliman.
Children who missed school vaccination: For children in school years one to seven who missed school vaccination: advise them to contact Vaccination UK. (see update above)
