You can visit Healthify for more information on RSV and for more information on the Arexvy vaccine, including information on vaccine safety and who Arexvy is recommended for. You can also visit The Immunisation Advisory Centre for more information.
Due to its cost we will not be keeping any spare stock of this vaccine at the practice -- so please be aware that you will need to book at least a week ahead of your vaccination so that we have time to order the vaccine in for you.
Please call our reception on 04 472 4266 if you would like to book a nurse appointment for vaccination, and be sure to let them know that you're wanting to receive Arexvy/the RSV vaccine.
