Some people with flu need to stay in hospital for a while. A few people die from flu.

Did you know that many people don’t know they have had the flu as they do not feel ill? But they can still pass it on and make other people very sick.

Ask your doctor or nurse, or check with your workplace, about a flu shot today.
