Flu shots travel by Uber

This year, Uber has partnered with Discovery Health to provide South Africans with access to flu vaccinations directly through its app.

It is estimated that between 45 000 and 60 000 South Africans are hospitalised with influenza-associated illnesses each year. Catching the flu is easy and preventing it should be too. That is why this winter Uber, the app that connects riders with drivers, has partnered with Discovery Health to provide South Africans with flu vaccinations at the tap of a button.

How to get your flu shot on demand:

Discovery accredited nurses will come equipped with a flu prevention pack, stocked with a few surprise items from Uber and Discovery to keep you healthy during the winter months.

Important to note:

We anticipate that demand will be through the roof, so please be patient and keep trying.
