The government is encouraging residents to get vaccinated against the flu as the season intensifies, with the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) launching its own staff vaccination drive in partnership with the Ministry of Health.
Director General of Communications Maurice Merchant said a team led by Nurse Soraya Dupy Winston visited the OPM on Thursday morning to administer flu shots to employees, part of a broader effort to boost protection amid what he described as a “terrible flu that is going around.”
Merchant urged members of the public to take advantage of available vaccines, calling them both effective and necessary as infections rise.
“It is safe and it works,” he said during the post-Cabinet briefing, emphasizing the importance of protecting not only individuals but also families and children during the peak of the season.
The initiative comes as health officials continue to warn about increased flu circulation and the strain it can place on workplaces, schools and health facilities.
Merchant said the government will continue promoting vaccination as one of the most effective tools to reduce severe illness and prevent further spread across the community.
Cabinet officials said the campaign reflects the administration’s commitment to strengthening public health preparedness, particularly during high-risk seasonal periods.

Flu shor is for elderly
chook Pringle with 2 shots. Dat might give him some common sense.
There’s a bad bad flu going around. Several of my friends said they caught it and even tested for COVID, but it wasn’t that. They said it’s some new strain and they are not quite sure how to deal with it. Terrible. Pump up the system folks!

Please do your due diligence in regards to the Prime Minister Gaston Browne and the Health Minister Molwyn ‘AstraZeneca’ Joseph.
I’m not saying that the flu vaccination promoted by these two government ministers is right or wrong, but when many Antiguans placed their TOTAL faith in them during the Covid-19 pandemic, many were seriously harmed, some sadly died; and women and children were tear gassed for protesting.
NEVER FORGIVE NEVER FORGET!
I hope that the vehicle acquisitions procurement scandal has not been put on the back-burner, because an independent investigation is very much needed for transparency and governmental integrity.

@FC, tell you what, you go take it for me and all my family one time. There’s about 15 of us. We good? Good chat good chat. Good looking out. I appreciate you ..
If u get the flu u na just stay home and drink some bush tea? Why more chemicals for something that is not even dangerous. The flu shot doesn’t even have a high success rate. They just looking to open up a new market for their drugs
Take the shot it’s safe and effective! Here we go again
“Bush tea” does NOT cure flu
Looking out for yourself is an individual effort, so make whatever choice you think you need to safeguard yourself.
At the end of the day,it’s your choice, and that’s what this administration failed to see during COVID.
So, you hear that GB..people should be free to make their own choices when it comes to their health and life..you cannot teargas people for not wanting to take anything they don’t want in their own body’s.
And, this is why you cannot be trusted..
But thanks for the heads up, but coming from you, it’s a none starter.
““Bush tea” does NOT cure flu” – and the FLu shot doesn’t prevent the flu. It’s not even 50% effective. The bush helps, also look up the Super Flu bomb and try it next time you get it. If you’re pills person, try zinc and vitamin C. Even the doctors are recommending it now.
Hmmmmmmmm……
Go to GOD use his herbs and remember he always knows how to deal with it….wake up…..FRESH AIR, SUNLIGHT, WATER ,EXERCISE, PROPER DIET, TEMPERANCE REST,AND TRUST IN THE CREATOR ONLY GOD’S WAY WORKS BEST AND THE NATURAL HERBS TO HELP……WAKE UP…..WE ARE UNDER A SIEGE READ THE BIBLE TRUST GOD ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT FOR DICERNMENT
