MVEC has recently updated its RSV immunisation reference page to reflect the upcoming addition of RSV vaccination for older adults to the National Immunisation Program (NIP).

The updated page includes details on RSV vaccines (for adults only, there are no vaccines registered for infants/children) and monoclonal antibodies, as well as information on disease transmission and epidemiology.
