Recommended vaccination - seasonal influenza

On the basis of documented transmission in health care facilities, health care workers (including students) are considered to be at significant risk for acquiring or transmitting seasonal influenza.

While not a condition of employment, vaccination against influenza is recommended in the Australian Immunisation Handbook. Talk to your employer, they may organise Influenza vaccination programs for all staff.
