We reached out to the South Australian Allied and Scientific Health Office to obtain clarification on the definition of 'Nutrition & Dietetics' within the below order. We have received written confirmation from the South Australia Acting Chief Allied Health Officer, Ingrid Lensink, that Nutrition (as defined with ANTA) is NOT included in the below Directions.


In a recent update to the South Australian Health Orders relating to mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations, it is noted that a range of "Allied and Scientific Health Practitioners" will be required to be single dose vaccinated by the 8th November, with an appointment to be double dose vaccinated within the standard interval of time.

We can confirm that the following modalities are not included in these Orders are:

  • Acupuncture
  • Chinese Herbal Medicine
  • Aromatherapy
  • Ayurvedic Medicine
  • Homeopathy
  • Myotherapy
  • Naturopathy
  • Remedial Massage including An Mo Tui Na
  • Shiatsu
  • Western Herbal Medicine

Unless you are a person working within a Primary Healthcare Facility.
