Community immunisation clinics

Brisbane City Council provides free vaccinations to eligible residents and a range of vaccines for purchase through our community immunisation clinics. Immunisation helps protect people against diseases such as measles, whooping cough, polio and tetanus. Providing a free immunisation service is another way Council is helping deliver our Brisbane Vision.

Clinic eligibility

Council's community immunisation clinics offer free vaccinations to residents aged from six weeks and above. Council also offers vaccines to purchase, including bexsero, influenza, tetanus, diphtheria and whooping cough.

Take a look at the National Immunisation Program Schedule for advice about when you should be vaccinated.

Flu vaccines are now available for all age groups

Eligible recipients can obtain a free yearly influenza (flu) vaccination at one of Council's community immunisation clinics.

People eligible for the free flu vaccine are:

all children from six months to less than five years of age (State government funded)
pregnant women at any stage of pregnancy (influenza and whooping cough vaccination can be given at the same time OR at different times during pregnancy)
all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged six months and older
individuals aged six months and over with medical conditions which increase the risk of influenza disease complications
persons 65 years and older.

Those who are not eligible can purchase the vaccine from any Council community immunisation clinic for $21.55.
