Flu vaccinations for young children are now even more accessible.
24 May 2024
Canberrans looking to arrange an annual influenza (flu) vaccine for their young child can access pop-up clinics.
The clinics provide free flu vaccinations for children aged 6 months to under 5 years at locations across the ACT.
Clinic locations and dates are shown below.
Bookings are recommended, however, walk-ins are welcome.
To book, call the Central Health Intake (CHI) line on 02 5124 9977 from 8 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday.
If this is your child’s first time receiving a flu vaccination, they should receive 2 doses of the vaccine, 4 weeks apart.
In subsequent years only 1 dose is required.
Children who only received 1 dose in their first year of vaccination still only require 1 dose in subsequent years.
