The flu shot is also free if you are:
- aged 65 and over
- pregnant
- an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander over 6 months old
- and people with medical conditions that put them at increased risk of severe flu.
Remember, the flu shot protects children from serious illness caused by the flu. Children and babies six months or older need to get the flu vaccine every year. It can be given at the same time as other routine childhood vaccines and it’s free for kids aged 6 months to under 5.
