Trina Scott (Registered Nurse and Bundjalung woman): 

If you’re eligible for the Shingrix vaccine under the new changes, get in touch with your health professional to protect yourself from shingles.

Dr Richard Mills (General Practitioner):

You can book your vaccine appointment with your GP or community health service. 

In some states and territories, local government immunisation clinics offer the vaccine. 

You can also obtain your vaccine from participating pharmacies and Aboriginal Medical Services also provide vaccines for the communities they serve.

So, shield yourself from shingles.
