NIP Update: Free RSV Vaccination for Older Australians From 15 May 2026
From 15 May 2026, the Australian Government will fund RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) vaccines through the National Immunisation Program (NIP) for adults aged 75 years and over, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 60 years and over. This $445.3 million investment removes a significant cost barrier — previously around $300 out of pocket — and is expected to benefit more than two million older Australians ahead of the 2026 winter RSV season.
