Stop COVID-19

If you have any flu-like flu like symptoms including a fever, cough, shortness of breath, or sore throat it is important to seek medical attention early. Please contact us via phone prior to making a booking or visiting the medical centre. When you ring please advise the clinic staff if you have recently travelled through an area identified as a COVID-19 hotspot in the last 14 days, or been in close contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19. Telehealth services are available.

The Cairns 24 Hour Medical Centre is involved in the COVID-19 vaccine rollout. We are encouraging our patients to receive the COVID-19 vaccine when it is available and offered to them.

The vaccine will become available in phases, so to find out when you can receive a COVID-19 vaccine use the Vaccine Eligibility Checker.

When you are eligible for your vaccination you can book an appointment via the Vaccine Eligibility Checker., or by using our practice online booking system HotDoc via our website or on your phone app, or by phoning the clinic.

When vaccinations commence we will have a limited number of vaccination doses available each week. There is currently a lot of interest in being vaccinated and we thank you for your patience during this time.
