Injections

Why are diseases from the past occurring in current times?

•Because people aren’t getting vaccinated anymore. •People are coming to our country illegally and can’t get vaccinated or will be found out.•It’s against some people’s culture to use medical procedure.•And it’s now being discovered that vaccines in childhood are wearing away.

Why don’t parents want their children to be immunized?

•Because they want their children’s body to build up its own immunity against diseases. •Some parents forget to immunise their children •Some of the parents come from different cultures and it’s against their culture to do some medical procedures. •There is a slight chance that there will be sided effects

What are the most common diseases?

• Chicken Pox• Whooping cough• Measles• Bubonic Plague

Where are the disease most widely spread?

Most cases in:• Central North Africa• India• South America

Who is involved in preventing disease and what is the process of

finding a cure?• Before finding a cure the drug has to

go through lots of tests.• Drugs need to be manufactured• People receive immunisation

Were the diseases as severe in the past? • The diseases are not as severe

now, as in the past• In the past getting a disease

like measles or whooping cough could kill you

• We now have vaccinations to prevent the diseases.

How dose Australia’s immunisation system compare to

that of developing countries? • Some children in developing

countries lack basic immunisations

• Government offers some free vaccines

• How can we help developing countries with immunisations

Does Australia lag behind in immunisation?

• Australia has one of the best health care programs in the world. We are renowned for having Medicare, which is a sort of government health care system. And our government offers free immunizations to people that wouldn’t normally be able to afford them.

• We do however lag behind when it comes to immunizing infants.
