Flu shots a great hit
After our previous communication about how nasty this year’s flu seems to be, a whopping 1 174 Nedbank Medical Aid Scheme members from across the country flocked to our 2018 Flu Vaccination campaign venues to ensure that their winter would be flu-free!
How did your workplace compare with the rest?
We can and should still improve our vaccination figures as a percentage of staff headcount, as we would ideally like to reach around 25% of all staff. However, the table below shows that we have made huge progress this year. (We’ve sorted the venues in order of highest vaccination percentage of estimated member headcount.)
