I had covid and after my isolation period I called Karratha vacc clinic at the hospital to make sure when I should get my booster, as I had only 2 vaccines and I was due for my third. The staff member on the phone said I could have my booster done straight after my isolation period if no symptoms. I booked an appointment, went to the hospital and was turned away because I had just had covid and couldn’t have the vacc. I told them someone on the phone said no problem and they said it must have been a miscommunication. I rang again around a week after to confirm this and they said it is your choice to have it now or in 3 months.
So I booked again, went there and they said I can’t have it before three months after having covid. I am still very annoyed for the waste of time. I feel I should go back without answering the question if I’ve had covid. If it is a miscommunication, I think is pretty serious as I trust I am protected and I don’t want to get the vaccine, but it is mandatory to have it… I believe this would be solved with better information for the staff as I recall WA Health website, the official info source, says you can choose if you want to have your booster after having covid or wait for three months.
"Covid booster denied"
