COVID-19 vaccinations are now available for healthcare workers
Victorian healthcare workers are currently eligible to receive their COVID-19 vaccination. Eligible workers within phase 1 of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout includes a range of healthcare workers across health services, private practices, and community settings. To confirm that you are eligible, please see the list on the Commonwealth Government’s website here.
By getting vaccinated you’re helping protect yourself, those you provide care to, and the whole community.
Bookings can be made by phoning 1800 675 398. Clinics are available in convenient locations across Victoria, and the locations of our high-volume vaccination clinics can be found here.
Depending on your age, you will be provided with either the AstraZeneca vaccine or the Pfizer vaccine.
If you are under 50 years of age, you are now eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine by booking at a State vaccination clinic.
If you are aged 50 years and over, you can now access the AstraZeneca vaccine through a State vaccination clinic or a local general practice.
You are eligible for the vaccine regardless of your visa status.

The letter of eligibility can be used as proof of status when attending your vaccination appointment
If you have any concerns about your health and getting the COVID-19 vaccine, please speak to your general practitioner or other health professional.
