COVID-19 Vaccine Roll-out: What We Know So Far
- We’ve submitted our Expression of Interest to be a vaccine administration centre for Phase 1b of the Astra Zeneca (Oxford) vaccine programme (i.e. for >70, those with chronic illness, ATSI >55 and high-risk workers not already covered)
- Bookings will ONLY be able to be made through a National Booking System run by the Government. We don’t know what this will look like yet, and are awaiting further information
- These vaccinations are not likely to commence until April (at least, pending overseas supply issues)
- A second booster is required 21 days later
- Seasonal flu vaccine needs to be given 14 days apart from the COVID vaccine
We’ll let you know more as further information comes to hand
