Children’s COVID-19 Immunisation Clinics
We are commencing COVID-19 immunisations for 5 – 11 year olds on Tuesday 11 January 2022.
Our clinics will run between 3-5pm on Tuesdays and Thursday initially.
Here at Glen Forrest Medical Centre, we will be using the Pfizer vaccine, as approved by the TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) and ATAGI (Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation)
The dose of the Pfizer vaccine for 5 – 11 year olds is one-third the dose of the adult formulation.
The interval for the two doses in 5 – 11 year olds is recommended to be eight weeks.
Booking for the first dose can be done online via this website, you will have the second dose booked when you arrive for your first dose.
**Bookings will be made available once we have vaccine supplies.
If you have lots of queries regarding this immunisation for your child(ren) then please make a separate appointment with one of our doctors prior to booking your immunisation clinic appointment, we are happy to discuss this with you to ensure informed consent.
