paisleylass Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Pertussis vaccination is routinely administered to pregnant women, so it is widely available in the UK. I don't know whether the NHS would cover it for an adult male, maybe he could get it done privately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisababy Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 We haven't been able to find anywhere private that will do it xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paisleylass Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Hmm, if even private clinics won't offer the vaccine, I reckon the only option is to get it done on arrival in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loulou Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Had to get mine done on arrival to Perth just walked into a surgery and they did it straight away and provided a certificate for $40. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seraphim Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 google uk travel clinics, they should be able to help (although might require travel to an urban centre for a consultation ($$$$) (sorry, no pound sign over here!). Easy enough to get here (you may have to pay as an adult, state dependant though) but its the catch 22, can't get in without vaccine, can't get vaccine until arrival! What job is it for?
