The Regional Government of Navarra has announced that it will commence its flu and COVID-19 vaccination campaign during the second half of October 2025. The campaign is part of an initiative to enhance public health as the flu season approaches, coinciding with the continuing efforts against COVID-19.
Health authorities have identified vulnerable groups who will be prioritized for vaccination. These include individuals aged 65 years and over, healthcare workers, residents of care homes, and individuals with chronic health conditions. The aim is to provide immunization to those most at risk, ensuring that they are safeguarded against both illnesses during the winter months.
According to a statement from the Department of Health, specific dates and venues will be made available closer to the start of the campaign, with additional outreach to educate the public on the importance of vaccinations. The initiative aims to mitigate the impact of flu and any potential resurgence of COVID-19, especially with the onset of colder weather when respiratory illnesses tend to rise.
“To protect our most vulnerable populations, it is crucial that we encourage everyone eligible to get vaccinated,” emphasized a department official. The government encourages early registration for vaccinations as the demand is expected to be high.
As the campaign approaches, further details regarding the distribution methods and logistics will be communicated.

The importance of the vaccination program is heightened by past experiences with both flu and COVID-19, highlighting the need for community vigilance and adherence to health guidelines. This campaign will serve as a critical measure to ensure the health and safety of the Navarra community in the upcoming months.
