Launched last September under the theme ‘Protect yourself … protect your community’, the seasonal flu campaign aims to heighten community awareness, promote prevention methods, and encourage community members to take the vaccine.

They can curb the disease and its complications, especially for individuals at risk of developing complications from influenza such as children under 5 years of age; the elderly; pregnant women; people with chronic diseases like asthma, heart diseases, kidneys, liver, diabetes and pressure; and health workers,” said Dr. Hussein Abdul Rahman Al Rand, assistant undersecretary for the Public Health Sector, Ministry of Health and Prevention.
