Being fit and healthy will not stop you getting the flu.

Influenza spreads very easily and up to 1 in 5 of us still gets influenza every year

Influenza can keep you in bed for a week or more, preventing you from doing study, work, sport or just about anything that requires leaving your flat, hall of residence or home. Sometimes it can develop into a serious illness leading to a stay in hospital especially if you have an underlying medical condition.

By immunising against influenza you can protect yourself and lessen the chance of spreading it to your friends and family.

 Costs:

Influenza immunisation is FREE (NZ residents only) for those most at risk; check out http://www.fightflu.co.nz to see if you qualify

NZ resident students: $18 ($11.50 +$6.50 nurse consultation charge)

International students: $31.50 ($11.50 +$20.00 nurse consultation charge)
