Spleen Australia encourages our patients to have a COVID-19 vaccination.
ATAGI states people without a functioning spleen are not severely immunocompromised, and therefore are not eligible for a third dose of a COVID vaccine. If you have other medical conditions that may make you eligible for the third dose, please discuss with your GP. Visit this link for more information.
We recommend you keep in touch with your GP and check the Australian Government website regularly for updated information.
We will be updating our website as more information becomes available.
