Thank you for doing your part during the pandemic. During the cooler months, let’s keep it up by doing 3 simple things: wearing a mask when necessary, staying up to date with vaccines and continuing to wash our hands regularly. Let’s stay on a roll through winter so we can do the things we love with the people we love.
Masks are an effective way to help stop the spread from you to others, and from others to you. It’s just another simple way of staying healthy through the cooler months.
When to wear a mask
It’s encouraged to continue to wear a mask even in settings where it isn’t mandatory to protect yourself and others from COVID-19 and flu this winter.
Vaccination is the best protection against flu and COVID-19. For the month of July, flu vaccines are free at state-run COVID-19 vaccination clinics and participating pharmacies and GPs. You can receive both vaccines on the same day.
Stay up to date
To give you best protection against COVID-19, make sure you get all recommended doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Getting a flu shot this winter means you are less likely to get sick so you can keep doing the things you love. For the month of July, flu vaccines are free for Western Australians.
All Western Australians are eligible for a free flu vaccine in preparation for the month of July. Simply walk in to any state-run COVID-19 vaccination clinic or book at participating pharmacies and GPs.
Children and vaccines
Vaccines help protect you and loved ones from serious illness. This winter protect your children from the flu and COVID-19.
With the cooler weather it's easy to stay indoors and indulge. Try and eat healthy foods, drink more water, do exercise and stay warm to help reduce your likelihood of getting sick.
