Flu vaccine products for patients aged 65 years and over
Written by AlisonFreemantle on Friday 13th October 2023
A reminder
The Flu vaccines you are required to use for those 65 years and over are aQIV or QIVr.
The QIVc vaccine is only recommended where aQIV and QIVr are not available.
The QIVe vaccine is not recommended for those 65 years and over and should not be administered to these patients.
The vaccines for each cohort are set out in the annual flu letter 2023/24 and summarised in this poster. National guidance provides advice where individuals have inadvertently been given a flu vaccine that is not the one recommended for their age group.
Seqirus still has stock available to order of both it's vaccines.
