Read the statement of amendment
This has been issued, following the news from Sanofi that recombinant quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIVr) will not be available for this year’s flu vaccination programme.
The amendments to the Annual Flu letter include a new flu vaccine which can be used for the first time – high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-HD) – which is only licensed for those aged 60 years and over.
