2 to 3 year olds Flu Vaccination Toolkit 2024
Flu is a respiratory illness that usually circulates in winter and can be serious for children and young people. Having the free flu nasal spray vaccine every year is one of the best ways of protecting them from getting seriously ill.
This year, the flu nasal spray vaccine will again be offered to 2 and 3 year old children (age on 31 August 2024) from September.
More information about the flu vaccination programme and eligibility is available at the Public Health Wales website at www.phw.nhs.wales/fluvaccine
