THE FLU VACCINATION

AIFA, in accordance with the Circular of the Ministry of Health of 5 June 2020 ("Prevention and control of influenza: recommendations for the 2020-2021 season"), recalls that, due to our climatic situation and the temporal trend shown from flu epidemics in Italy, the period intended for conducting flu vaccination campaigns is autumn, generally from mid-October to the end of December. 
Given the current epidemiological situation relating to the circulation of SARS-CoV-2, it is recommended to bring forward the conduct of anti-flu vaccination campaigns starting from the beginning of October and offer vaccination to eligible subjects at any time of the flu season, even if they show up late for vaccination.

The protection induced by the vaccine begins approximately two weeks after vaccination and lasts for a period of six/eight months before decreasing. For this reason, since the viral strains in circulation can mutate, it is necessary to undergo a flu vaccination at the beginning of each new flu season.

For this reason, all the staff of EB Sicurezza e Ambiente has joined the vaccination campaign underway in recent weeks.

FOR EVERYONE'S SAFETY
