Influenza: Vaccination
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether all dentists are eligible for free influenza vaccinations.
- Answer
-
Dentists are eligible for a free flu vaccine through occupational health arrangements made by their employer.

Employers should commission a service which makes access easy for all frontline staff, encourage staff to get vaccinated and monitor the delivery of their programmes.
