BBC Morning Live's Dr Xand van Tulleken has issued a stark warning to viewers, urging them to take preventative measures against four illnesses this winter

Dr Xand van Tulleken from BBC Morning Live has sounded the alarm for viewers, stressing the importance of taking action to prevent four major illnesses this winter. The programme highlighted a shocking 350% rise in flu cases compared to last year, leading Dr Xand to urge those who haven't had their jab yet to book it pronto and avoid the all-too-common error of skipping the vaccine and falling sick.
