Influenza A (H1N1) Swine Flu

Flu centres


Flu centres have been set up in some areas to assess and treat people who have the flu.

The centres will keep patients with other ailments away from those with the influenza virus, and help health services cope with the large number of ill people expected.

They are officially called Community Based Assessment Centres or CBACs and in some areas these words will be used.


Find your nearest Flu centre.
