These dates have been extended from those originally promoted.
And it's worth noting that no bookings are needed for first doses, you just turn up. Pfizer vaccine will be available at this clinic for those aged 12 years and over.
Anyone aged 12-15yrs - must be accompanied by their parent, guardian or nominated carer.
NSW Health is encouraging students to take up this opportunity ahead of the return to face-to-face learning. Those attending will need to bring a form of identification and where able, their Medicare card.
The queue may be long, so we encourage people to come prepared with food, drink, perhaps a portable chair, a hat and sunscreen.
Second dose clinics will be scheduled for a later date.
If people have mobility/accessibility difficulties and can't get to a clinic, they can phone 1800 684 523 and leave a message with their name, contact number and the town the clinic is in. Someone will get in contact with them.
People MUST NOT ATTEND the clinic if they:
- Are waiting on a COVID-19 test result (unless this was a surveillance test only and the person is not unwell).
- Are a CONFIRMED close contact of a CONFIRMED positive COVID-19 case.
- Are unwell. Anyone with COVID symptoms should get tested & isolate until they receive a negative test result.
- Have had ANY other vaccination (including flu) in the previous seven days.
