Dear colleagues,
The Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) has released recommendations around COVID-19 vaccine boosters for adults in high risk cohorts, including healthcare workers.
Staff who had a second dose of COVID vaccine at least six months ago can now get a booster at any Metro North vaccination clinic. Please bring your ID and Medicare card.
Regards,
Louise O’Riordan
Metro North Health Incident Controller
