Free Swine Flu Vaccine

I called two days ago to book an appointment to a GP for a swine flu vaccine.Front desk towld me no need to book and all I need is to show up and a nurse can provide the service.

I went to a Medical clinic today and request for a Swine flu vaccine. Front desk officer ask for my Medicare card and details and then ask to wait for my name to be called by the nurse.

Waited for almost 1hour as the clinic was full of patients and my name was finally called.

Nurse called the doctor on the phone if I need consultation of she can provide me the vaccine right away. I was ask if I have future plans of going outside of the country and I said I have plans but not clear at the moment. The Doctor gave a go signal to the nurse and in a couple of minutes I was ask to sit down on the waiting area and observe in case I feel discomfort.

I did not feel any discomfort so I left nd that's it. I did not pay anything, no questions ask. I only notice that there are so many patients waiting in the medical clinic.

Kudos to Australian government  for providing free Swine Flu Vaccine to everyone who is a resident of Australia.
