Flu and Covid could make this a hard winter for UK
The UK must prepare for a big, early wave of flu, experts warn, based on what Australia has just experienced during its winter.
Many Southern Hemisphere nations have had their most rampant flu season for years.
It is largely because people mixed more once Covid restrictions had eased, but had little immunity to The influenza virus after a break from The disease.
Health experts are urging anyone who is eligible for a flu shot to get one.
After two years with almost zero flu circulating - and all The Focus On Covid jabs - There is concern that vaccine fatigue may have set in. in The UK too.
NHS director for vaccinations and screening Steve Russell said: " This winter could be The First Time we see The Effects of The so called 'twindemic' with both Covid and flu in full circulation, so it is vital that those most susceptible to serious illness from these viruses come forward for vaccines in order to protect themselves and those around them. "
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) says this year's flu jab is a good match for The Type of seasonal influenza that is circulating - a strain called H3N2.
It is The same one that caused a bad flu season for The UK in 2017/18.

About 26m people are also eligible for a free Covid booster to top up their immunity.
Covid and flu vaccines are recommended for those at higher risk of illness, which includes:

Meanwhile, all primary school children and some Secondary School children, as well as youngsters aged two or three, can get a free Nasal Spray flu vaccine.
Most young children will not have encountered flu yet. This means they will not have built up any natural immunity to this virus, so it is particularly important for them to take up The flu vaccine this year, say experts.
Dr Susan Hopkins, Chief Medical Advisor at UKHSA, said: " I Am more worried about flu than I have been for The Last few years because of The reduction of immunity that is around. "
She Said There were " strong indications" that The UK could face The Threat of widely circulating flu along with new Covid variants that might evade The immune response.
" This combination poses a serious risk to our health, particularly those in high-risk groups. So, if you are offered a jab, please come forward to protect yourself. "
GP surgeries and pharmacies get The flu vaccine in batches throughout The flu season. If you cannot get an appointment straight away, ask if you can book one for when more vaccines are available.
