Asthma, diabetes or COPD? If you suffer from a chronic condition such as asthma, COPD or diabetes, even a simple flu can quickly become dangerous. Infections put additional strain on your immune system – but the right vaccinations can help protect you. Find out here which vaccines are important for you!

If you live with a chronic disease, you should take extra steps to protect yourself. One important way to do this is through appropriate vaccination.

Key vaccinations for people with chronic conditions:

  • Flu – the vaccine helps prevent severe illness
    Pneumococcal – the vaccine reduces the risk of pneumonia
  • COVID-19 – the vaccine protects against severe infections
  • Diphtheria & whooping cough – important for stable immunity
  • Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) – recommended for those in high-risk areas

Not sure if you’re sufficiently protected? Then book a vaccination consultation now and get professional advice tailored to your needs. At the end of the consultation, you’ll receive your vaccination prescription(s) directly via the Well app, if needed.
