Parents and carers of children aged 2 and above are encouraged to ensure their child gets their flu vaccine ahead of winter. The child flu vaccine is usually given as a painless nasal spray and is a safe way to help protect your child against flu. Visit nhsinform.scot/childflu

I publish my annual report tomorrow, an update to #RealisticMedicine. I write about the population health challenges facing us, the need to avoid transactional, industrial care & risk of de-professionalisation. But there’s also hope- with great examples of work countering this.
