Have you had your free flu vaccine yet?

The flu vaccine is the best way to protect yourself against the flu this winter. 💪

Here's the facts:
> nearly 100,000 Queenslanders caught the flu last year
> more than 7,000 of them ended up in hospital.

Queensland winters are too good to spend sick in bed. Getting vaccinated before the flu season helps to keep everyone well, so you don’t miss school, childcare or the fun stuff! ☀️

The good news is, more flu vaccines have already been delivered this year than at the same time last year, with over one million doses distributed since mid-March. Supply is strong and continues to reach vaccination providers right across the state.

All Queenslanders 6 months and older can get their free flu vaccine now. Plus, there is the nasal spray flu vaccine available and free for children aged two to five years (before they turn 6).

From tomorrow (Friday 11 November), Queensland's COVID-19 traffic light system will move to AMBER. 🚦

There are currently moderate rates of COVID-19 community transmission and Queensland is entering a new wave.

While the traffic light is amber, we recommend you wear a mask:
👉 in healthcare settings
👉 indoors, if you can’t socially distance
👉 on public transport
👉 if you are older or medically at risk
👉 if you’re around people who are vulnerable to COVID-19.

Stay home if you’re sick, maintain good hygiene and keep up-to-date with your vaccinations.

Take a Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) if you get COVID-19 symptoms – or every two days, if someone in your household has COVID-19.

If you get COVID-19:
👉 register your RAT result
👉 stay home until you’re well again
👉 wear a mask for 7 days after your test
👉 avoid visiting hospitals, aged care or disability care for 7 days after your test, unless you are receiving care
👉 ask household members to closely monitor symptoms.

You should always wear a mask if required by a healthcare provider, venue, or household.
