COVID-19 Information

VACCINE INFORMATION

Vaccines are the most effective way to prevent infectious diseases. They prepare your immune system (your body’s natural defences) to recognise and defend itself against a specific virus.

​

You will get this vaccine as an injection in your upper arm. It will only take a few minutes.

​

Like all medicines, vaccines can cause side effects. Most of these side effects are mild to moderate and short-term.

​

Not everyone gets side effects.

​

​

BOOKING AN APPOINTMENT

Vaccines come in vials that contain multiple doses. We need to coordinate patient appointment times to minimise any wastage of vaccines once vaccine vials are opened.

 

Step 1 is to register for the vaccine. You can do this in-store or online here. You will be asked to complete a form giving the details required to process your vaccination.

 

Step 2 You will be contacted by the pharmacy with a proposed vaccination time. This may be by SMS message or via a phonecall.

​

Step 3 You will get a reminder the day before your appointment and will be asked to confirm that you do not have any symptoms of Covid-19.

​

Minimising Wasted Doses:

Vaccine doses are precious, and we all have a responsibility to minimise waste.

​

Please

• Do not register with multiple pharmacies

• If you book an appointment and then for any reason are unable to attend please let the pharmacy know as soon as possible

​

If you have any common symptoms of COVID-19 (coronavirus), self-isolate (stay in your room) and phone your GP straight away to see if you need a COVID-19 test. Other people in your household will need to restrict their movements (stay at home).

Common symptoms of COVID-19 include:

It can take up to 14 days for symptoms to show. They can be similar to symptoms of cold and flu.

Getting an early diagnosis from your GP means you can get the help you need and take steps to avoid spreading the virus, if you have it.
