Immunisation
Getting vaccinated is an important way to keep people in Fairfield City safe from serious illnesses. There are now more places than ever where you can get your vaccines, including your local GP, pharmacies, and community health services — making it easier for you and your family to stay up to date.
Vaccines don’t just protect the person getting the vaccination. When someone misses a vaccination, it could affect family members, friends, workplaces, and the whole community. If enough people are not protected, diseases can spread quickly and disrupt daily life.
Immunisation helps prevent:
- Severe illness and hospitalisation
- The spread of disease to infants, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems
- Disruptions to daily life, including school and work absences
- Long‑term health complications from preventable illnesses
The South West Local Health District have set up Community Vaccination Clinics at
- Wetherill Park Library
- Whitlam, Cabramatta Library
- Fairfield Hospital
