Covid-19 Vaccination Program For Children Underway
Children aged between five and 11 years old have started to receive COVID-19 vaccinations, with parents urged to make a booking as soon as possible. The bulk of the children’s vaccination program will be delivered through general practitioners and pharmacies, with Aboriginal Medical Services and Western NSW Local Health District’s (WNSWLHD) vaccination hubs and mobile clinics also playing a role.
Children aged between five and 11 will receive two, specially-sized doses of the Pfizer vaccine, eight weeks apart. The Local Health District’s vaccination services will be holding a satellite site in Cowra that will host a clinic.
Details of when these services will operate will be on the WNSWLHD website, along with details on how to book.
