STAY UP-TO-DATE
Having whooping cough does not leave you immune and while vaccination is the best defense against the bacteria, protection does wane over time.
A whooping cough booster at least every 10 years is a safe and effective way to bolster protection.
You can find out if you’re up-to-date with your whooping cough vaccines by:
✔️ Talking with your GP
✔️ Talking with your pharmacist
✔️ Accessing your Immunisation History Statement via the Express Plus Medicare App
