The Australian government recommends that all eligible Australians receive the seasonal influenza (flu) vaccine every year. This is because vaccination is a simple and effective way to protect yourself from catching the flu.
As an adult, if you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person, you can access the free influenza vaccine. Pregnant women can access the free influenza vaccine at any time during their pregnancy. People with some chronic health conditions, such as asthma or heart disease, may also be eligible for a free influenza vaccine. Speak to your healthcare professional or GP about influenza prevention.
