💉 Are you over the age of 65?

It’s time for your flu vaccine. In Australia, people aged 65 years and over are at higher risk of serious illness and hospitalisation from influenza, and annual flu vaccination is recommended. The Australian Government advises people aged 65 years and over to get their flu vaccine from April to help protect them during peak flu season.

Getting vaccinated each year is an important step in protecting your health through winter. Influenza vaccination is funded under the National Immunisation Program for people aged 65 years and over.

✅ Recommended each year for adults aged 65 and over

✅ Helps protect against serious flu-related illness

✅ Important before peak flu season

✅ Funded for eligible patients aged 65 and over

💊 Antibiotics Don’t Fix Everything

Not every illness requires antibiotics. They are only effective for certain bacterial infections and do not work on viruses like colds and flu. Using antibiotics when they are not needed can reduce their effectiveness over time.

The right treatment starts with the right advice.

✅ Don’t work on viruses

✅ Overuse can lead to resistance

✅ Always follow GP advice

✅ Use antibiotics only when appropriate

📅 Speak with your GP before taking antibiotics
