Influenza Vaccinations

The Hon. F. PANGALLO (15:01): Given the flu vaccines only have a life of three to four months, is the government intending to offer another round of free vaccines to the most vulnerable members of our community, who may have had their shots prior to winter commencing, to ensure that they get through the winter fully vaccinated?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:01): I'm at a loss, Mr President, to see how that is a supplementary, but certainly in relation to the advice that I have received from public health officials, it is not recommended that people be revaccinated within the one flu season.
