Are you aged between 50 and 70 and have a history of smoking?
You could be eligible for a free lung scan every two years through the new National Lung Cancer Screening Program. It’s a simple low-dose CT scan that checks your lungs for early signs of lung cancer.
The scan is quick, painless and could save your life.
If you think you might be eligible, speak to your doctor or healthcare provider.

New data shows syphilis and gonorrhoea are on the rise in Australia, while HIV is going down.
Many STIs can be treated, but it’s important to catch them early to avoid serious health problems. Regular testing and safer sex (like using condoms) will help keep you and your partner/s healthy.
Stay ahead with testing and treatment by visiting your doctor or local sexual health clinic.
