The Flu is one of the worst virus that anyone can get right now, with more viruses still to come. A lot of health experts have advised everyone to get their Flu jabs and Covid vaccine before Winter goes into full swing as new data suggests this may be a hard Winter for a lot of us.
The flu season has started early, according to health experts, and some children under five are ending up in hospital due to having the Flu, health officials say.
They are also reminding parents that all two and three-year-olds can have a flu nasal spray vaccine to ensure safety in their kids.
Another common winter virus called RSV, which can cause chest infections, is also on the rise in young children. This is why there is so much notice before this happens.
