COVID19 Vaccination Update for Employees

In response to recent updates to the eligibility criteria for winter dose COVID19 vaccinations, we are opening on-site Pop-up Vaccination Clinics for Monash Health employees.

Getting your COVID vaccination

The clinics will be limited to employees only. Pfizer vaccines will be available for winter doses in line with ATAGI guidance:

  • Employees in the following categories are recommended to receive a winter dose:
  1. Aged 50 years and older (updated)
  2. Residents of aged care or disability care facilities
  3. Severely immunocompromised (fifth dose)
  4. Aged 16 years or older with a medical condition that increases the risk of severe COVID-19 illness
  5. Aged 16 years or older with disability, significant or complex health needs, or multiple comorbidities which increase the risk of a poor outcome.
  • Employees aged 30-49 are eligible for a winter dose (updated)
  • The interval recommended between a third dose, or a recent SARS-CoV-2 infection and a winter dose is now three months (updated)
  • Pregnant women aged between 30 to 50 years old have the option to receive a fourth dose following a discussion with their GP (or pregnancy specialist), to see if it is right for their individual health needs

No bookings are required for the pop-up clinics, simply walk-in. Please note that queue lengths may mean you have to return later – we appreciate your patience.

Please bring your Medicare card and Employee ID card.
