Can you pay for the flu jab?

[kellogs100]

I'm a fit and healthy 23 year old but I would really like to get the flu jab as I've had the flu badly several years in a row in the past where I've required the doctor to come out and now I have a baby with nobody to help care for him if I was to become ill. Am I allowed it if I pay?

Many chemists sell it - Superdrug �9.95; Tesco �10

if youve had to have the doctor out due to being so ill with the flu why not go and see them and ask if they will give you the jab

[bednobs]

both answers above are correct. Unfortunately you do not fit into a priority group, however, if your gp has vaccines left over after they have done the priority people who want one you may be able to get one
