Do You Need Any Different Inoculations ?

[minty]

Hi all,

 

Im sure that adults dont but do children need any further jabs for Aus other than those they get in the UK ?

 

Children are 4 and 7 (both almost) and have had all of there normal jabs.

If they havent had chicken pox then they will need the jab for that, also they have Hep B here, 3 lots of needles over 3 months.

 

Dont know of any others though but sure someone does.

This is probably not the answer to your question but here is a website that lists all the recommended immunisation jabs once you are living here (and not just for the children) http://www.immunise.health.gov.au/internet/immunise/publishing.nsf/Content/nips2

Hi,

 

If you take your red books into the immunisation clinic when you get here they will tell you what jabs you need to catch up, our kids were 18months, 3 and 6 when we got here and all needed hep b jabs and the little one chicken pox jab (even though she had recently had chicken pox!)
