FAQs
How do vaccines work?
Vaccines introduce a disease-causing antigen to our immune systems.1 Our bodies make antibodies to these antigens without causing illness.1 So then, if we ever encounter the “real” germ, our body can defend itself by quickly producing more antibodies to destroy the germ.
Where will I receive the vaccination in the pharmacy?
You will receive your vaccine in a safe, private space within the pharmacy.
Do I need to book a vaccine, or can I walk in?
To secure your spot and avoid disappointment, you should book your appointment for a vaccine by visiting amcal.com.au/bookings
How and when can I have both flu and COVID-19 vaccines? Can they be administered at the same time?
You can now receive your flu and COVID-19 vaccine at the same time.
What should I expect after being vaccinated?
Vaccines are rigorously tested and go through many rounds of study, examination, and research before they’re used with the general public. Vaccines have been around for a long time and have proven to be one of the safest and most effective public health interventions in history, saving millions of lives globally every year eradicating diseases like smallpox, and preventing tetanus, polio, and diphtheria. All vaccines can have side effects, which are usually mild, and your pharmacist will talk you through these during your appointment and discuss which vaccines may be appropriate for you.
The Therapeutic Goods Administration’s safety monitoring team of doctors, pharmacists, nurses, and scientists are closely monitoring any reported side effects from vaccines to investigate any safety issues. Up-to-date information regarding vaccine safety and vaccine recommendations can be found here and here.
