Last chance for free vaccination
Immunisation rates remain low across Kilcoy, Woodford and Wamuran, which have been identified by Queensland Health as an area of need for improved COVID-19 and influenza vaccine coverage and are priority communities for Brisbane North PHN.
For the third year running, and together with the Queensland Injectors Health Network (QuIHN), Brisbane North PHN is pleased to offer free community vaccine clinics to residents of Kilcoy, Woodford and, this year, Wamuran, who will be able to access both COVID-19 and flu vaccines at the free clinics.
To ensure this service is accessible to as many priority community members as possible, in partnership with vaccine provider QuIHN, they have extended the 2025 program to include five clinics: two in Kilcoy, two in Woodford, and one clinic in Wamuran.
At their second very successful clinic in Kilcoy, they saw 110 residents attended on April 12 to receive their annual vaccines – many of whom expressed an appreciation for access to this service in the community.
Wamuran’s clinic was held on April 5 seeing 28 patients attend and 52 vaccines administered, many also expressing their appreciation of these services.
Appointments for Woodford’s second clinic on Saturday, May 17 are available online or by calling 07 3620 8111, with walk-ins welcome on the day.
Both Medicare and non-Medicare card holders can access this service at no cost.
This is your final opportunity to receive a free vaccine service in Woodford for 2025.
Further information will be published in the coming weeks, and some information is available on the Brisbane North PHN website: https://www.brisbanenorthphn.org.au/
