The strong community response to vaccination against COVID has shown that when we work together, we can prevent disease and deaths, with case numbers falling rapidly and the government easing restrictions. 

We now have 80 percent of over 16s vaccinated and more than a third of 12-16 year olds. Getting a vaccination has never been easier with pharmacies and medical centres stocking a variety of vaccines. I urge anyone not yet vaccinated to join us in this campaign, which will allow us to open further while keeping people safe > HERE.  

A new walk-in vaccine clinic for anyone 12 years and older opened last Friday 15 October, operating out of the Bicentennial Clinic at Sydney Hospital Macquarie Street 9am-4pm. Vaccination locations > HERE.
