Dedicated Commonwealth worker vaccination hubs are now available in Tasmania for all aged care workers – residential, in-home and community aged care.

It is strongly recommended all aged care workers get their booster dose as soon as they are eligible.

The Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) recommends that a person aged 16 years and over is up to date with their COVID-19 vaccination when they receive a COVID-19 vaccine booster dose from 3 months after completing a primary course of a COVID-19 vaccine.

Dedicated worker vaccination hubs are available for a limited time so book your appointment without delay.
