Measles spreads easily. Anyone who is not vaccinated can catch it. Measles can cause serious complications and can be fatal, so make sure you’re up to date with #MMR vaccinations and ask your GP practice about catch up jabs if needed.

Are you feeling under the weather? 🤧 Winter viruses like #flu and #RSV are spreading, so it's possible you've been exposed. If you're unwell, try to stay at home to avoid spreading illness to others who may be more vulnerable. Learn more on the @NHSuk website Stay Well page.

During spells of cold weather, it's important that we look out for vulnerable people in our communities. Older people, young children, and those with some long-term health conditions may be particularly at risk of health problems when the temperature drops.
