IMMUNISATION Plunket Correction
In our article 'Plunket nurse plays an important role', Bulletin September 24, incorrect information was published about immunisation of babies. The following information is correct: To give extra protection the first triple vaccine is now
given at six weeks of age, followed as normal by a three and five month triple vaccine injection and polo sip. Then at 1 5 months a measles injection is given, with final protection at 18 months with a double vaccine injection and polio sip. The fourth and last polo sip is given at five years of age.
