Shots Schedule

[ashlukris]

Hi all,

We are moving to Perth next month from New Zealand, and I wondered whether our shots are scheduled differently here..

DD is currently up to date with her shots, she is 18 months and her last lot was at 15 months. According to our GP, she doesn't need any more until she is 4yo.

Is this the same over there in Aus?? Or will she need some more before then??

TIA x

if you google "wa vaccination schedule" it will come up with a link to WA Health and a pdf copy of the vaccination schedule.

What vaccinations did she get at 15 months? There are 12 month vacc's here, chicken pox at 18 months if you want it, then the 4 year ones.

Hope that helps

Great, thank you!

At 15 months she got the MMR, hasn't had chicken pox yet as it costs here and isn't made very widely known (well, my GP has certainly never mentioned it to me)
