‘Don’t Assume You’re Immune’ campaign launched

‘Don’t Assume You’re Immune’ is the new campaign launched by the State Government.

A series of compelling videos and images have been created to prompt people to stop and think about the risks they could be placing on themselves and those around them by not being immunised.

Vaccine-preventable diseases are still found in our community, and immunisation is the best way to protect people against these diseases.

The 12-month campaign encourages people to get the facts about vaccine-preventable diseases. Visit the new online information hub, or speak to an immunisation provider such as your GP, pharmacist, community health nurse or Aboriginal health worker/practitioner.

The campaign was developed in response to a recommendation from the independent review of WA’s COVID-19 management to combat inaccurate and false information regarding public health measures.
