Covid-19: Can I get the Covid vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?
Unsure whether you can get the Covid-19 vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?
Here's your answer neighbours:
People wanting to get both the flu jab and a Covid-19 vaccine heading into winter will be required to leave a two-week gap between the vaccines.
And those receiving a measles (MMR) booster will need to leave a four-week gap between the Pfizer vaccine and the MMR jab when MMR is given first, under advice from the Ministry of Health.
This is because having a gap between different types of vaccinations – especially considering the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine is still “relatively new” – helps authorities be sure about any side effects that may occur.
The country’s flu and Covid-19 vaccine roll-outs are both due to ramp up from May, with the influenza vaccine becoming available to under 65s, and the Covid-19 vaccine rolling out to approximately 1.7 million people in group 3.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
35.8% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
64.2% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
