Measles immunisation

Pre-1970 most children infected by 5 years of age

1970-72 single measles vaccine dose added to schedule

1992-93 2nd dose added to schedule

2019 Australian-born ≈ 25 – 50 years

- received maybe one dose = “under immunised”

2019 Overseas-born – unknown vaccination status

Measles prodrome

Coryza

Conjunctivitis

Rash around Day 4

Maybe not all symptoms present

Measles Rash

Rash begins behind ears

Spreads to face and neck

Spreads to rest of body

Rash can be very faint

- Might be itchy

- May appear anywhere on the body

Public Health Management

“Immune”

A person can be considered to be immune if:

• Born pre-1966 (presumed natural immunity)

• Documented evidence of 2 doses of measles vaccine

• Documented evidence of immunity (IgG positive)

• Documented lab-confirmed prior measles

Influenza – notified cases

Disease notifications based on laboratory results

eg Influenza and “Influenza-like illness”

GPs Hospital

Factors affecting number of

influenza notifications

Health-seeking behaviour

- Severity of illness

Immunity (vaccinated or previous exposure)

- Need work certificate

- Availability of doctor

Doctor testing behaviour

Flu surveillance

Flutracking - self reported online

Nurse-on-call

GPs - people presenting with influenza-like illness

Ambulance

Hospitals - emergency department, admissions, ICU

Mortality - death notifications (BDM – Dept Justice)

- Proportion of patients presenting with influenza-like illness (ILI)

- Percentage of patients with ILI who have influenza

- Identification of other circulating viruses causing ILI

VicSPIN

Sentinel GP surveillance of influenza-like illness
