COVID-19 vaccinations in 2025: Disability Service
Provider update
Topping up COVID-19 protection
COVID-19 is still in the community and can be dangerous for people with disability.
Protection provided from the COVID-19 vaccine decreases over time. Vaccination in 2025 gives
additional protection against severe illness from COVID-19.
Recommendation
In 2025, all adults can consider one or two COVID-19 doses depending on their age and health.
This means:
 Adults aged 65 and over, or between 18 and 64 who are severely immunocompromised, are
eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccination every 6 months based on their individual health
needs and recommended to receive a COVID-19 vaccination every 12 months.
 Adults aged over 75 are recommended to receive a vaccination every 6 months.
 All other adults are eligible to get a COVID-19 vaccination every 12 months.
 A useful tool to assess individual requirements can be found at: COVID-19 booster eligibility
checker | Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Ageing
More information can be found in the Australian Immunisation Handbook
It is safe to have COVID-19 and annual flu vaccines at the same time.
Your support is important
Vaccination combined with COVID-safe behaviours are the most effective tools in keeping people
safe from serious illness.
As a disability service provider, your support is crucial in ensuring people with disability are
vaccinated against COVID-19 if they choose.
You can:
 Ask your local Primary Health Network for help finding suitable vaccine providers, including onsite vaccinations if needed.
 Arrange a visit from a Commonwealth COVID-19 vaccination service if you can't use other
primary care vaccination pathways.
 Support your staff to get vaccinated alongside residents during in-reach vaccination services.

Considering that there is evidence that certain treatments during acute COVID do decrease the severity of long COVID… I think it is negligent to restrict access to PCR testing to “healthy” people just because we don’t want to prescribe antivirals to prevent hospitalisation/death.
