This season’s flu vaccination scheme has been plagued by difficulties. The Government’s new pharmacy flu vaccination programme aimed to vaccinate hard-to-reach patients, but has meant that fewer were vaccinated in GP practices. Many GP practices have been left with surplus vaccine, which the GPC has suggested could lead to a combined £4m loss to practices in flu payments. As GPs prepare to put in their orders for next season, Dr Andrew Green advises on whether it’s worth you offering the same scheme next season.

It seems that people are getting the shots in pharmacies.
But it is a profitable 'business' for the GPs!! So who cares about the harm it does?
