Remember, if you’re feeling unwell, antibiotics aren’t always needed. Taking antibiotics when you don’t need them puts you and your family at risk. Take your doctor or nurse’s advice when it comes to antibiotics #KeepAntibioticsWorking

Pregnant women need the free flu jab to help protect themselves and their baby, as catching flu when pregnant can lead to serious complications for both. Don't put it off. Speak to your GP or midwife today. bit.ly/1cVypFa

Always a privilege to be invited into someone's home. Today, I met Darren. He has two kids, loves snooker and, eight-years ago, had a #stroke. He's eloquent, funny, doesn't let his condition rule his life and, importantly, has a #Flu jab every year. Thanks for having me
