2026 Private Flu Vaccines Available Now

2026 Private Flu Vaccines Available Now

Private Flu Vaccines Now Available at Chisholm Centre Pharmacy.

With flu season approaching, now is the ideal time to protect yourself and your family.

Chisholm Centre Pharmacy is pleased to announce that influenza (flu) vaccines are now available for private patients.



What Does “Private” Mean?

Private flu vaccines are available for patients who are not eligible for a free government-funded vaccine under the National Immunisation Program (NIP).

This includes:

  • Healthy adults under 65 years
  • Individuals without specific medical risk factors
  • Those who prefer to get vaccinated early in the season

If you’re unsure about your eligibility, our pharmacists are happy to help.



Why Get Your Flu Vaccine Early?

The flu can be more than just a bad cold. It can lead to serious complications, missed work, and spreading illness to others.

Getting vaccinated early helps to:

  • Reduce your risk of getting the flu
  • Lessen the severity of symptoms if you do get sick
  • Protect vulnerable people in your community

It takes about 2 weeks for the vaccine to provide full protection, so earlier is better.



Who Should Consider a Flu Vaccine?

Flu vaccination is recommended for everyone aged 6 months and over, particularly:

  • Working Adults
  • Parents and Carers
  • People in regular contact with others


At Chisholm Centre Pharmacy, we make it easy to stay protected:

  • No long wait times
  • Walk-ins welcome (subject to availability)
  • Quick and professional service
  • Friendly advice from your local healthcare team
