We have heard that there are local influenza cases already this year so it’s time to protect yourself and your loved ones from Influenza
Our pharmacists can vaccinate from aged 5. There will be 2 vaccine options to choose from in the 2025 season for people aged 5-64, the traditional 4 strain vaccine grown in egg cells, and a newer technology 4 strain 'cell-vaccine'.
Our pharmacists will discuss these options and help you make the choice on which one is right for you as there different costs applicable for this age group.
For patients aged over 65yrs we have the stronger flu vaccine specifically designed for this age group and since this vaccine is available through the National Immunization Program there is no out of pocket expense for this group.
We also have access to the National Immunization Program flu vaccines for patients who are aged 5-64yrs who are medically at risk of complications from influenza and there will be no out of pocket expense for this group. Eligibility criteria apply https://bit.ly/3pQtFvt
