Proposal for new supply agreements for funded vaccines in the National Immunisation Schedule, and widened access to influenza vaccine

Overview

We are entering new supply arrangements for some funded vaccines. These changes will:

• guarantee continued supply of 17 funded vaccines and a diagnostic test
• widen access to a flu vaccine for children (from 6 months until their 5th birthday)
• widen access to pneumoccal vaccine for people who have had a serious pneumoccal infection.
