In the first part of this article I will discuss the recently announced changes to the immunisation schedule. In the second part of the article I will discuss immunisation generally, including a brief synopsis of the nature of diseases we immunise for, and the benefits of immunisation.
The important changes to the schedule is that children will now receive a combined Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella (Chicken pox) vaccine at eighteen months of age.The commencement of the national Varicella (Chicken Pox) Vaccination Programme began in 2005. All children will continue to be vaccinated for chicken pox at eighteen months.
