As the COVID vaccination rollout continues, in case you also require any other vaccinations or TB testing, please be advised of the guidelines below:
- As recommended by the National Advisory Commission on Immunization (NACI) COVID-19 vaccines should not be given at the same time as other vaccines. There should be a period of 14 days after administration of other vaccine before receiving the COVID-19 vaccination. Once a dose of COVID-19 vaccine is administered there needs to be a waiting period of 28 days prior to receiving other vaccines.
- TB testing can be completed any time prior to administration of COVID-19 vaccine or 28 days post COVID-19 vaccine dose.
