RSV Immunisation Program
The Government of South Australia is partnering with the Australian Government to deliver a new Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Maternal and Infant Protection Program ahead of winter 2025.

Under the new comprehensive program:
-
From 3 February 2025, a single dose of RSV vaccine Abrysvo® will be available for people from 28 weeks of pregnancy under the National Immunisation Schedule (NIP).
-
From 1 April 2025, eligible infants up to 8 months old, including infants whose mothers did not have the option to be vaccinated against RSV; and children up to 2 years old with high-risk conditions, will have access to a state-funded Beyfortus™ (nirsevimab) monoclonal antibody immunisation.
