Updated Booklet: Flu Vaccination & ME/CFS 2024/25

Flu vaccination is important because, although flu is often unpleasant, it can be dangerous. This is especially so for anyone with certain chronic health conditions, including ME/CFS. And with Covid still around, a combination of flu and Covid could be even more serious.

As there is no simple yes/no answer as to whether people with ME/CFS should have a flu vaccine, the purpose of this information is to supply you with everything you need to know about flu vaccines and ME/CFS. You and your doctor can then decide whether you ought to have this protection.
