Australia: good to know

  • PEP in this country. Call the NSW PEP hotline for the nearest supply. After hours, hospital emergency departments are usually the fastest route.
  • What visitors pay. Public sexual health centres in NSW are free and don’t need a Medicare card. Private GPs and pathology may charge visitors.
