Consultant in Respiratory Medicine urges people with lung conditions to prepare for winter with COVID and flu vaccines

With winter fast approaching, Dr Charlie Sharp, Consultant in Respiratory Medicine, is urging those eligible to protect themselves from serious illness in the months ahead and take up the offer of flu and COVID vaccines.

In a new blog and video, Dr Sharp reminds those with long term lung conditions that they’re at risk of becoming critically unwell if they catch flu or COVID infections, but that vaccines are the safest and most effective way to protect themselves.
