What Are Immunisations and How Do They Work?
Immunisation is the process through which your body becomes resistant to infectious diseases, usually after receiving a vaccine. Vaccines introduce small, inactive parts of a virus or bacteria to your immune system, prompting it to create a defence that prevents future infections.
Our immunisation clinic offers a range of vaccines aligned with national guidelines, including those required for school enrolment, employment, and international travel.
