Free flu vaccinations available for staff

We are ensuring that free flu vaccinations are available for ANU staff this year, as part of our commitment to their health and wellbeing during the upcoming influenza season.

All staff are strongly encouraged to take up this opportunity. Protecting ourselves from the flu helps to keep the wider community safe and reduces the strain on health services during the upcoming winter months. Particularly with reduced immunity in 2022 to the flu and the additional risk of COVID, it is even more important that you have the flu vaccination this year.

To provide flexibility for our staff in 2022, we are offering three options for receiving your free flu vaccination:

1. On campus at the ANU Medical Centre 
2. On campus at the University Pharmacy 
3. Off campus by accessing a voucher code to be used at a Terry White Chemist in Canberra

ANU Medical Centre

Flu vaccination appointments at the on-campus ANU Medical Centre will be available from Tuesday 19 April, with flu jabs administered by registered nurse. Further information and a booking link are available here.

To receive your vaccination, you must present your University staff ID card and provide your Medicare card at the time of your vaccination. If you have any issues when making this booking, please please email the clinic at medical.centre@anu.edu.au

University Pharmacy

Flu vaccinations are now available at the on-campus University Pharmacy for walk-in appointments. To receive your vaccination, you must present your University staff ID card. The vaccination will then be provided free of charge.
