New post immunisation wait times

Tairāwhiti | Lakes | Taranaki | Waikato | Clinical | 18/02/2026

The standard post-vaccination wait time is now 15 minutes across all vaccines in Aotearoa New Zealand. This applies to all age groups and all vaccines, whether given alone or at the same time as other vaccines. Wait times can be increased on an individual basis as deemed appropriate by the vaccinator OR reduced to 5 minutes, when the criteria in the attached is met.
