FLU AND SHINGLES IMMUNISATIONS

Flu vaccines are available free for all aged 65+ years and those who meet eligibility criteria.  A fee of $27 applies for non-eligible people. 

The shingles vaccine is fully funded for people aged 65. You need two doses of Shingrix, given 6 months apart. As long as you are 65 when you receive your first dose, both doses will be funded.
