Keep your child's immunisations on time.
- Vaccines protect against serious illnesses such as measles, polio, whooping cough and pneumonia
- Follow the dates in your child's health record book
- Missed a dose? Come in. It's not too late to catch up
- A mild fever or sore leg afterwards is common and passes quickly
Bring the record book to every visit.
