What is Swine Flu?
Swine influenza is a disease in pigs. The virus currently transmitting di-rectly among people is now generally referred to as swine flu although the origin of the disease is still under investigation. There is no evidence of this strain of the disease circulating in pigs in the UK. There are regular outbreaks of swine influenza in pigs worldwide. It does not normally infect humans, although this occasionally does occur—usually in people who have had close contact with pigs. Swine influenza viruses are usually of the H1N1 sub-type.

HPV vaccine (The Department of Health’s immunisation programme helping to prevent cervical cancer) was launched in the autumn of
2008 and is routinely offered to all 12 - 13 year old girls in school and annually thereafter. At the same time, a catch-up programme for
all 17- 18 year old females was launched. This catch-up programme was extended in April 2009 to include all girls born between 1st
September 1991 and 31st August 1993. If you are female and fall between this age group please telephone the surgery or call in and
make your appointment with a Nurse as soon as possible.
MMR vaccination is offered routinely throughout the UK and you should ensure that you and your children are protected against Mea-
sles, Mumps and Rubella. Between 1992 and 2006, there were no deaths from acute measles; tragically, there was one death in 2006 and
one other death so in 2008. We are offering a catch-up campaign for patients between 13 months to 18 years of age who have not re-
ceived any MMR vaccine and those who have received partial vaccination.
Please telephone the surgery or call in to make your appointment with a Nurse as soon as possible.
