RSV Vaccines

by Posted on

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common, highly contagious virus that infects the airways and lungs. RSV spreads between people when an infected person produces small water droplets while talking, coughing or sneezing. The droplets can be inhaled by others or land on surfaces where the virus can live for several hours.

From May 15 Australians aged 75 and over and can receive FREE RSV vaccination. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are eligible from the aged of 60.
