Fighting Flu, Starts With You
Flu Vaccinations Now Available in Reservoir, Melbourne | Joseph Amerena Reservoir Pharmacy
As we head into the 2026 flu season, now is the best time to protect yourself and your family with a flu vaccination in Reservoir, Melbourne.
At Joseph Amerena Reservoir Pharmacy, we offer convenient pharmacist-administered flu vaccinations to help keep our local community safe during winter. Whether you are heading into a busy workplace, caring for elderly parents, managing a chronic condition, or simply wanting to stay healthy, getting vaccinated early is one of the most effective ways to reduce your risk of serious illness.
Why get your flu shot early?
The flu vaccine takes around 10–14 days to build immunity, so vaccinating before cases peak in winter helps ensure you are protected when influenza starts circulating more widely across Melbourne.
Early vaccination is especially important for:
adults aged 65+
pregnant women
children
healthcare and aged care workers
people with asthma, diabetes, heart disease or weakened immunity
carers and family members supporting vulnerable people
By getting vaccinated early, you are also helping protect your workplace, family, and the wider Reservoir community.
Who can get a flu vaccine at our pharmacy?
