*Vaccination can be administered before arrival in flood affected areas to those from other regions deployed for recovery efforts by arrangement.
Due to a state-wide shortage of JEV vaccine, as per the Department of Health directive, Council is only permitted to administer the Live attenuated vaccine (Imojev).
Imojev is contraindicated in pregnant women and immunocompromised people and is not licensed for use in children under 9 months of age. The inactivated vaccine (JEspect) is only available through your local GP or MDAS.
