Can I get the flu vaccine?

You can get a free flu vaccine if you are:

• Aged 60 and over
• A healthcare worker
• Pregnant
• Living in a nursing home or other long-term care facility
• In regular contact with pigs, poultry or waterfowl
• Aged over 6 months and have one of these medical conditions
• A household contact or carer for somebody with underlying conditions

If you are eligible for a free flu vaccine, you will need to provide your PPS number at your flu vaccine appointment.
You can get your COVID-19 booster and flu vaccine at the same time if you are due a COVID-19 booster.
What is flu?

There are different types (or ‘strains’) of flu virus that go around each year. You should get a new flu vaccine every flu season to make sure you are protected. The flu season runs from October until April every year.
If you are infected with flu, you can spread it to other people by coughing or sneezing. You can also spread flu by touching surfaces without washing your hands.
You can infect other people from 1-2 days before your symptoms develop, and up to 5 days after your symptoms develop. Read the differences between the symptoms of flu and COVID-19.
Who is most at risk?Flu can affect you at any age, but some people are more at risk and are strongly advised to get the flu vaccine.
The flu vaccine is free for people that are more at risk (listed above).


Flu vaccine during pregnancy

If you are pregnant, you should get the flu vaccine as soon as possible. This is because pregnant people are more at risk of complications from flu.
If you are pregnant through two flu seasons (for example, your pregnancy goes from the end of one flu season to the beginning of another), you may need to get two flu vaccines (one in each flu season). Read more about the flu vaccine during pregnancy.
You may be able to get the flu vaccine on the same day as the whooping cough vaccine.
Cost of the flu vaccine

If you are in one of the groups listed above you can get your flu vaccine for free.
If you do not fall into one of these groups, the cost is €35
