may i know immunizations have intervals? or one shots only?

Your doctor should know that. You need to complete these vaccines as soon as possible to avoid delays.. mmr is 2 doses, 1 month interval. Hepa A is 2 doses, 6 months interval

For those who are attending IHNA WA I have read their immunization declaration form and it says there, "In WA they must show proof of immunity (not just proof of immunisation) for all childhood and adult vaccinations." What are the serology that needs to be done?[/quote']

AntiHBs level;)

Hi everyone. I just got my eligibility for the bridging program from AHPRA and currently looking for schools. I sent an application to Alpine Health/Lonsdale Institute. How long does it usually take for them to reply? And i'm also planning to send an application to CON, does anybody know how long it takes for them to give a feedback. Please let me know. Thank you very much.

I sent mine to AHPRA Victoria last week of Sept and got my eligibility November 17. A little over a month. But I think they're having delays as of the moment due to the number of applications received.
