Record year for flu jabs in Rotherham


Ian Atkinson, executive place director for the Rotherham NHS Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), said: “We’ve had a really successful flu campaign for 2020/21 and this is the biggest uptake we’ve had in Rotherham.
“We saw a total of 84 per cent of people aged 65 and over have the flu vaccination between 2020/21 in Rotherham, a ten per cent increase compared to last year’s total.”

“I am hoping we can now keep this good momentum going with vaccinations for future years to come.”
