People aged 50 and over can now be vaccinated with the Astra Zeneca vaccines at vaccination centres across Victoria, including at the Monash Medical Centre.

While walk-ins are available, phone bookings are encouraged to reduce wait times. Call the booking service at 1800 675 398 (and select option 1, option 1, option 1). You can then discuss the centre that’s right for you based on availability, age and vaccine type.

A number of the centres will offer a pathway to the Pfizer vaccine strictly for those eligible to receive it. The Pfizer vaccine is supply limited and prioritised for eligible people under the age of 50 in phase 1a and 1b of the Commonwealth’s program.
