Getting vaccinated
If you’re an adult and it’s been 6 months or more since your last COVID-19 vaccination, you can now get a booster. Top up your protection with the latest vaccine.
2023 booster advice
All adults can get a booster if it’s been 6 months or more since your last COVID-19 vaccine.
ATAGI recommends that all adults 75 years or older should receive a booster.
ATAGI advises that people at higher risk of severe illness should consider a booster after discussion with a healthcare provider, including:
- all adults aged 65 years or older
- 18 years or older with medical conditions, disability or complex health needs.
The new COVID-19 bivalent vaccines help protect against the original strain of COVID-19 and the Omicron variants. A booster provides very strong protection against serious illness from COVID-19.
The date you had your last COVID-19 vaccine is on your COVID-19 digital certificate, available through your myGov account or the Express Plus Medicare App. Healthcare providers who provide vaccinations, including pharmacists, can also check your immunisation history for you.
