Protect Yourself and Your Loved Ones: Book Your Annual Flu Vaccination Today!

Dear Patients,

As flu season ramps up this year, it’s important to take proactive steps to protect yourself and those around you from influenza. Here are some key facts to consider:

  • Influenza (flu) activity is increasing this season and is expected to continue in the coming weeks.
  • 40% of flu cases have occurred in children aged 6 months to 14 years.
  • The flu is more likely to cause severe illness and complications in certain groups, including children under 5 years, the elderly, pregnant women, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
  • Vaccination is key to protecting yourself, your friends, family, and communities from the flu.
  • It is never too late to get vaccinated. The yearly flu vaccine is recommended for everyone aged 6 months and over and is free for high-risk groups.
PRIVATE FLU VACCINES – $25

GOVERNMENT-FUNDED FLU VACCINES – FREE FOR ELIGIBLE PATIENTS

  • people aged six months to less than five years (can be given at the same time as childhood vaccines)
  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged six months and older
  • pregnant women (can be given at any stage of each pregnancy)
  • people aged 65 years and older (a vaccine that is specifically designed to produce a higher immune response is available for this group).
  • people aged six months and older with medical conditions putting them at increased risk of severe influenza and its complications.
