Immunisation in Pregnancy and Adults | Webinar

29 August 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Presented by WA Primary Health Alliance
29 August 2024 (5.00pm to 6.00pm AWST)

Vaccination during pregnancy does not only protect the mother but also generates antibodies that can cross the placenta, providing protection to the unborn baby.

Immunisations are even more important as we age.  Our immune system begins to decline in its ability to fight off infections, which makes people ages over 65 (Aboriginal people over 55) and older more vulnerable to diseases like influenza, COVID-19, pneumonia, and shingles.

Topics included in this webinar:

  • Understanding the immunisation schedule for pregnant people and adults
  • Gain an understanding of immunisation before and during pregnancy
  • Gain an understanding of immunisation for adults
  • Accessing AIR reports and using appropriate calculation tools to better care for adults.
