Influenza Did you know? ● Influenza, commonly known as the flu, is a highly contagious viral infection. ● Flu symptoms include fever, a cough, sore throat, fatigue, muscle aches, headaches, runny nose and watery eyes. ● The symptoms may sound familiar, however the flu is not the same as a common cold Why vaccinate? ● Each year, the flu virus strains can change. The best protection against the flu is annual vaccination with a vaccine that targets the most recent and common circulating strains. ● If you are immunised, you are less likely to catch the flu, reduce the severity of flu symptoms, and prevent passing it on to those close to you. ● Flu protection from the vaccine takes up to two weeks to develop and it is best to get vaccinated before the flu begins spreading in your community.
Ask your Advantage pharmacist about how to get vaccinated today!

• You don’t need a prescription to access this service in the pharmacy. Pharmacists are very well placed to provide immunisation services to their local communities, as they are highly accessible to the public. In fact, pharmacists are the most frequent healthcare point of contact with the public. The general public are recommended to receive a flu vaccine annually. Vaccination should also be a consideration for family and friends of people at high risk of complications, such as elderly parents or grandparents, pregnant spouse, or chronically sick family members. Likewise, people who work in the health industry, particularly where there is contact with vulnerable patients should consider vaccination.

Influenza Vaccination in the pharmacy Where to Get Vaccinated: Participating Advantage pharmacies are able to provide in-store vaccination service for eligible adults. Ask your local Advantage pharmacist today. Safety of the Vaccine: Influenza vaccine meets Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration requirements and has been available for 50 years. Time Taken for Vaccination to be Effective: The body creates antibodies between 3 and 14 days after the vaccination. Time between influenza vaccinations: Protection remains for about one year. Often there are different strains each year so annual vaccinations are necessary for continued protection. Consumers who should NOT have influenza vaccine: Those that have a known allergy to eggs or chicken feathers, or a known allergic reaction to a vaccine in the past.
For any other queries, please do not hesitate to ask your local Advantage pharmacist.

What is Immunisation? Immunisation protects people against harmful infections before they come into contact with them. It uses your body’s natural defences to build resistance to specific infections.

There are many conditions and diseases that can be prevented by vaccines. Common ones include: ● Chickenpox ● Influenza ● Hepatitis A and B ● HPV (Human Papillomavirus) ● Meningococcal ● Measles ● Shingles ● Tetanus ● Whooping Cough
Ask your Advantage pharmacist about how you can protect yourself, your family, and the whole community against vaccine preventable diseases!
