What you need to know about the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

A total projected 9 million doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine arrived on Australian shores in October, and although the Pfizer vaccine is well known on the market, we’re sure you have a few questions, and it’s great to be informed.

We’ve put together some helpful FAQs to help, but in short, the Pfizer vaccine is very similar to the Moderna vaccine, in that both are mRNA vaccines that work by helping your immune system create new antibodies that help fight off the virus that causes COVID-19.

The Pfizer vaccine has gone through rigorous evaluation and approval processes, and both the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and the Australian Technical Advisory Group for Immunisation (ATAGI) have approved its use for all those aged 12 years and over, as well as those who are pregnant.
