Residents and staff in aged care would be first in line for another dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, along with healthcare workers and border and quarantine workers.
While some other countries are already rolling out booster doses to their older and more vulnerable populations, the shots are yet to be approved in Australia.
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has been considering an application from Pfizer to use its existing vaccine as a booster.
It is expected the additional vaccine would be offered roughly six months after a person receives their second dose.
But the exact timing and shape of the rollout will be informed by advice from the government's vaccine advisory body, the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI).
