Vaccination is the best preparation for winter. Keeping your vaccinations up to date helps protect you from serious illness caused by influenza (flu), COVID‑19 and RSV. Older people are at higher risk of severe illness, and staying up to date with recommended vaccinations can help reduce the risk of hospitalisation and complications. Speak to your GP, pharmacist or healthcare provider to learn more and book your vaccination.
To support aged care providers, community organisations and older people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities, the Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Ageing has developed a range of translated winter vaccination resources.
The resource pack brings together multilingual resources, fact sheets, posters, social media assets, videos, information on influenza (flu), COVID-19 and RSV, guidance on vaccine eligibility, and links to trusted Australian Government information - all in one place to support aged care providers and community organisations.
