Why get vaccinated?

Although influenza is a common infectious respiratory disease, in some cases it can be complicated, worsen the patient's overall health, decompensate chronic diseases and in some cases even cause death. Vaccination it is recommended for all people from childhood, it is suitable for example also for pregnant and breastfeeding women. Vaccination significantly reduces the risk of getting sick with the flu and its serious course, an indirect effect is also the protection of loved ones risk contacts of the vaccinated.

What vaccines do we vaccinate with?

This season we will be vaccinating with the VAXIGRIP and INFLUVAC vaccines (the choice of a specific vaccine is not possible – the type depends on the distributor's current availability). For interested patients aged 65+, we offer the option to order the EFLUELDA vaccine, which has 4x the amount of antigen compared to other vaccines and thus increases the immune response and protection against the disease. For both vaccine types, a single dose is administered; vaccination is recommended to be repeated every year because the flu virus is very inventive and circulates each year in a slightly different composition.

What is the cost of vaccination?

Vaccination is fully covered by health insurance for patients over 65 and selected risk groups of patients (e.g. patients with chronic diseases of the heart and blood vessels, respiratory tract, kidneys, diabetes, after spleen removal, etc.). For other patients, the price for the 2025/2026 season for the VAXIGRIP/INFLUVAC vaccine is CZK 450 including application (the price remains the same as in the previous season).
