When should I book my flu jab?

For the most effective protection, it’s generally recommended to get your flu jab as early in the flu season as you can.  The season is during the autumn and winter months. Booking your flu jab a few weeks before the start of the flu season is a good approach. This could mean considering booking your flu shot in late summer or early autumn.
