(THIS IS NOT A BOOSTER DOSE.  ADVICE REGARDING COMMENCEMENT OF BOOSTER VACCINATION IS COMING SOON)

 ATAGI recommends a 3rd primary dose of COVID-19 vaccine in severely immunocompromised populations to address the risk of suboptimal or non-response to the standard 2 dose schedule.

The 3rd dose is intended to maximise the level of immune response to as close as possible to the general population.

Please see the list of conditions or therapies in the link below.  You will need to sign the Eligibility Declaration – see link.  If unsure please discuss with your doctor.

If you do not normally attend our practice you will need to bring a health summary and medication list for your third dose at our practice.
