Recently some mothers are asking children when to get vaccinated and what are they getting vaccinated about? This into the body of the children, we parents or do a number of good, today for you to carefully collate the official schedule of Australian children's vaccines, and some of the frequently asked vaccinations, I hope to help you understand at a glance.
Vaccination is free and necessary.
I believe we all know that the Australian government is asking all children to be vaccinated. If the vaccine record is not up to the standard, it will affect a series of welfare content, such as Family Benifit,Childcare Benifit, etc., and children will not be able to enroll in Childcare or Public Shcool..
Where to vaccinate?
There are usually two places where you can get vaccinated, the simplest is to go to the nearest GP clinic to get an appointment, and the other is the City Council, in each district, but the City council vaccination is fixed every month. Just confirm the time and place on the official website.
When did you get what vaccine?
According to the Government's latest list of vaccines in 2015, all are organized as follows:
And after school, there was a School programs, for 10-15-year-olds,
English name:

- Diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis (whooping cough) (dTpa)
Chinese control:
- crystalli
- [医]Human papilloma virus
- Diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (pertussis)
Is vaccination history recognized outside Australia?
Some of our children were born overseas and already had vaccination records when they came to Australia. Take the original and photocopies of the vaccination records and use them by looking for translators who have the qualifications to translate them. This is the case with my fruit, which is equally valid and can be found online when submitted to GP.
Conversely, Australian children going to live in China need to find hospitals or communities at home where they can vaccinate their children. Mothers have consulted the official authorities, and the answer is, as far as possible, they can play according to the types and standards of vaccines here in Australia. If there is no or does not meet Australian standards, it does not matter, and will not affect the future of children's school problems. The key is to keep the original record of the child's vaccination.
Then, after returning to Australia, find GP to show the vaccination certificate (of course, the translation), to decide whether to meet the Australian standards. If it is in compliance, he will assist in the receipt of this record (Childod Immunisation Register), which is still complete and effective when the child enters or needs to consult the vaccine record.
Vaccination considerations
It is important to note that the Australian and Chinese vaccine systems are slightly different, for example, the hepatitis B vaccine is a total of four doses, while in China there are only three. So when consulting health care workers, previous vaccine records are important, and be sure to ask in detail about the disease and when you should be vaccinated.
If the baby has fever after vaccination, some of them are normal antibody reactions, can be improved by physical cooling, such as wiping the whole body and torso with warm, wet towels, and placing the towels on the child's forehead. If the adverse reactions continue not to improve, please consult GP. in time.
