the british medical association said delays to flu vaccine deliveries caused a huge increase in staff'slena wilkinson, bbc news. dr sarahjarvis explained how the delays to flu jabs could have a knock—on impact on other general practice services. i think it could be a real issue for patients and general practice, patients are in trouble, because it's notjust a question of delaying it, it's all the cancellations of many, many clinics, patients already have a challenge getting through to reception. those receptionists are now going to be tied up, phoning other patients to cancel their appointments. we also think that as we just heard, not only is it likely that flu will be a higher risk this year, that we will have more cases, but also they are likely to start sooner because that's what we have seen from other viruses that children have got. on that note in terms of the delay to deliveries, do you think there is more that could have been done to pre—empt and prevent this? or is it something that was just simply unforeseeable? unfortunately in general practice, we spend our lives waiting an
