Clinical guidance on use of COVID-19 vaccine

The overarching goal of Australia’s COVID-19 vaccination program is to protect all people in Australia from the harm caused by SARS-CoV-2, through preventing serious illness and death, and, as much as possible, disease transmission.

Due to the constantly evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the COVID-19 vaccination program, clinical guidance on the use of COVID-19 vaccines in Australia from ATAGI is provided on the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care website - see ATAGI clinical guidance for COVID-19 vaccine providers.
