Yes,I'm in Liverpool and for the past few years my husband and son and daughter have had the flu jab too on the advice of my renal team, mainly as I am immuno-compromised due to kidney transplant, but this would apply anyway as I was on immunosuppressants before my transplant. Less exposure to potential infection, I suppose!
my hubby is my carer and he also has the flu jab, he had his jab last week and I had mine when I had my last bloods done.
Thanks for the tip, I didn't know that. My boyfriend (and carer) also works full time in a department store.... That's a lot a germs to bring back to someone on immunosuppressants! I'll see if my GP have any jabs left. Thanks!
