If you have tested positive for COVID-19 you may receive your next dose of the vaccine once you have fully recovered or defer the dose for up to 4 months. Speak with your health care provider to determine which option is best for you.
Should you wish to defer your booster dose due to the above, to remain complaint with Curtin's COVID-19 Vaccination Policy you will need to submit your exemption via our webform by selecting 'COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements'.

- An SMS or email from another State or Territory health department confirming registration of your positive rapid antigen test result or positive PCR test result;
- A printout from a pathology laboratory of your positive PCR test result; or
- A doctor's letter confirming you have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and the date of infection.
