The Tasmanian Government is running free community clinics across the State. These clinics give the Pfizer vaccine.

Community clinics may be in place for a limited time, before moving to other locations and communities. Other community clinics are in more permanent locations.

Keeping COVID-safe

Keep COVID-safe at community clinics.

• Wear face masks
• Check in when you arrive
• Follow safe social distancing
• Stay at home if you are unwell
• Cover coughs and sneezes
• If you are aged over 16, attend on your own where possible
• One parent or guardian should accompany a child where possible.

A number of general practices are offering the COVID-19 vaccine.

Check your regular practice’s website or give them a call to see if they’re participating in the rollout.

If you are eligible to receive the vaccine and your general practice is not providing it, you can access a free vaccine at a community clinic, pharmacy, GP respiratory clinic, or another GP accepting other patients. Check the Australian Government clinic finder.

There are Australian Government-funded GP respiratory clinics located in Hobart, Launceston and St Helens offering the vaccine for free to eligible people.

To book an appointment call:

Hobart GP respiratory clinic – 03 6165 2367

Launceston GP respiratory clinic – 03 6310 8310

St Helens GP respiratory clinic – 03 6351 0007

Selected community pharmacies are delivering the AstraZeneca (Vaxzevria), Moderna (Spikevax) and Pfizer (Comirnaty) vaccine to people aged 12 years and older.

Use the Australian Government clinic finder to find a participating pharmacy in your area.

Boosters

Booster vaccines are recommend for all people aged 18 and over from four months after their second dose of the vaccine.

Boosters are recommended to maintain protection and immunity against COVID-19.

Third Primary Dose

A third primary dose of vaccination is recommended for people who are severely immunocompromised as part of their primary course of vaccination because they might not be fully protected by the regular two doses of a vaccine.

A third primary dose is different to a booster vaccine and should be given between two and six months after their second dose of the vaccine.
