00:00I plan to get my flu jab next week and I think, you know, you should get it, it's free.
00:07Go and get your flu jab. It just saves lives.
00:10No, I don't want it.
00:12Tell me why.
00:13Because we've had too many injections into her and it's messing with her immune system.
00:18No, I'm getting the flu jab but I don't really particularly want to have the flu jab
00:22because everyone sneezes over you on the bus, you know, so you've got to have the flu jab, you know.
00:26Do you think there's enough being done to raise awareness about the importance of being vaccinated?
00:31That's the point. No, I don't think there is.
00:34Perhaps more can be done in, I don't know, say the pharmacies, the surgeries, doctors, GP surgeries
00:42and, in general, advertising, television.
00:46They do advertise it for the over-60s, don't they, you know, but it's, I don't know, it depends on the individual, I suppose, doesn't it?
00:54I mean, if you're dealing with the public, you really do need to have your flu jab because they sneeze all over you.
