Dear Families, Friends & Representatives,
The latest Australian Government COVID-19 Case Numbers Report shows community transmission of COVID-19 increasing across all States and is now at a moderate level. There has also been an increase in COVID-19 outbreaks in residential aged care facilities.
In response to this, we are promoting the following public health messages and encourage you to incorporate these as part of your communications to others:
Please remember that now is a good time to consider getting a COVID-19 booster vaccination if you are aged 65 years and over or are at higher risk of severe COVID-19 illness and haven’t had one in the last 6 months.
A COVID-19 booster vaccination is recommended for all people aged 75 years and over if it has been more than 6 months since your last dose.
