COVID-19 cases are increasing in Victoria

COVID-19 cases are increasing in Victoria which means transmission is high within the community. 

Together, we can protect the vulnerable people in our community who can get very sick with COVID.

The Department of Health encourages you to get your 2023 booster dose to prepare for winter.

Getting a booster dose remains the best way to prevent severe illness or hospitalisation, especially in people over 65 and those at higher risk of severe illnesses.

Everyone aged 18 and above can get their booster dose 6 months after their last dose or COVID infection.

Free COVID-19 booster dose is available at your local pharmacy or GP, so get yours now.
