Australia is making every effort to promote the vaccination plan. Many Australian Chinese have also begun to receive the new crown vaccine, but there are still many people who are not very clear about how to get vaccinated, who can get vaccinated, where to get vaccinated, etc. Don't worry, Xiaoxing has compiled the whole list. The most complete reference of the net is here!
Who can get vaccinated
The Australian Ministry of Health recently announced that Australian vaccination has entered Phase 2A. From June 8th, more people can choose to actively vaccinate Vaccine:
1.All 40-49-year-old adults; span>
2.All 16 to 49 years old Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islander people;
3.16 years old and above Recipients of the National Disability Insurance Plan (NDIS);
4. and support for NDIS Caregivers of any age who provide services to the subject;
5. currently in Australia, And temporary visa holders under the age of 50.
If you add the previous population over 50, border control, health care workers, etc., Australia’s vaccinated population has already covered More and more widely.
It is worth mentioning that, according to the Australian News Corporation report on June 14, more than 5 million Australians have been vaccinated against the new crown vaccine. At the same time, the federal government "gave the green light" for GPs, allowing them to go to the homes of disabled and elderly people to vaccinate them.
According to Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt, 5.9 million Australians have received the first dose of the vaccine and more than 5.8 million Australians have received the second dose. Hunt also revealed an "important next step" for vaccine promotion-making it easier for the elderly and disabled in Australia to get vaccinated.
He said: "Now, all nursing home residents in Australia have received the first dose of vaccine, 94% have received the second dose, and the remaining people will complete the full dose in the next few days or weeks."
"In order to better achieve this, the efforts we are making include getting GPs to visit and vaccinate them."

According to the Family Visit Subsidy Scheme, GPs who come to vaccinate the disabled and the elderly will receive a subsidy of A$56.75, plus the vaccination fee for the first patient they visit.
Hunt also said: "This is to expand the vaccination program to allow more people to be vaccinated. We have found that as many as 60,000 people live in nursing homes each year."
"With the continuous promotion of vaccines, we must ensure that the vaccination program can cover all nursing homes and nursing homes for the disabled. Visit subsidies can... let more than 30,000 Australian GPs choose whether they want to join the program."
At the same time, Eric Young of the Vaccine Operations Centre said that Australia is expected to distribute 1.1 million doses of the new crown vaccine to more than 2,800 vaccination points across Australia this week.
Which vaccines are available
Australia currently has only two vaccines, Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccine, although AstraZeneca vaccine is stored more, but because of the safety risk of inducing thrombosis, it is only used for people over 50 years old .
The Pfizer vaccine is given priority to people under the age of 50.
Please note: People do not have the right to choose which vaccine to get, everything depends on their age.
TGA approved vaccine incentive measures
In order to promote vaccination in Australia, TGA has allowed companies to provide incentives to those who have received the new crown vaccine. The rewards offered can include store vouchers, discounts or frequent flyer rewards, but not alcohol or tobacco And drugs other than prescription drugs.
The TGA also emphasized that even those who were vaccinated before the award was announced can also be rewarded by virtue of their vaccination records. Those who have received the first or second dose can enjoy it.
At the same time, TGA is evaluating whether it can expand the scope of vaccine promotion and promote Pfizer vaccine to people aged 12 to 16.
I believe that with these rewards, Australians will be more proactive about vaccination.
Where are the vaccination sites?
Knowing that Australia encourages vaccination, and knowing who can get which type of vaccine, the most important question is, where can I get the vaccine?
Next, we will compile a comprehensive list of vaccination sites across Australia:
Reminder: Some vaccination centers can go directly to the vaccination center without making an appointment, but the waiting time ranges from 15 minutes to 4 hours.
