A fifth Covid vaccine dose will be made available to Australian adults from 20th of February.
All adults who have not had a booster or a confirmed case of Covid-19 in the past six months will be eligible for another dose, after the government accepted the advice of the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (Atagi).
At this stage Glen Forrest Medical Centre do not plan to recommence clinics until mid April.
We would not recommend having it at this stage of the year unless you are travelling.
Covid numbers are reducing in Australia and the virus seems to spread faster in cooler climate so please consider whilst we are in the midst of summer and much is happening outdoors we remain fairly safe.
If you are requiring a booster now please check https://rollup.wa.gov.au/ for the nearest location.
Otherwise keep an eye on our website for updates.
