Free flu vaccine program to be extended to all residents

Over 57,000 people from high-risk groups have taken a flu vaccine as part of the 2021-2022 free flu vaccination program, which began on September 20. In order to strengthen the community’s immunity, the Health Bureau has made the program available to all Macau residents. From today, all residents can access a flu vaccine free of charge. The minimum age for vaccination is six months. To reduce waiting times and avoid crowding, health authorities have implemented an online booking system.
