这 Q fever register (the previous central recording register for Q fever vaccine administration) has moved to the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR). Any vaccine administered after 15 April 2024 must now be recorded on AIR.
However, it is important for providers to note that records prior to this date have not automatically been transferred. Therefore, it may be necessary to access both registers to confirm a person’s vaccination status.
Please remember that Q fever vaccination is contraindicated in people with:
- a history of laboratory-confirmed Q fever
- a positive/equivocal serology result
- a positive skin test
- a history of Q fever vaccination
- 免疫妥协
- anaphylaxis to a component of a Q fever vaccine (including eggs).
ATAGI does not recommend vaccination for anyone 14 years of age or younger.
