LB | VACCINE - PREVENTABLE DISEASES IMMUNIZATION ACTION MONTH - Immunization to prevent disease is safe, easy to administer and offers long term protection. Unfortun­ately, large numbers of children and adults are not protected against a number of dis­eases for which safe and effective immuniz­ing agents are available. Thus the potent­ial for outbreaks of diseases like diphth­eria and poliomyelitis, is still present. Diphtheria is an acute infection of the tonsils, pharynx, nose or skin, or any combination of these. An encouraging de­cline in the incidence of diphtheria has been observed in Alberta this year. By September 8, 1979, 40 cases and 23 carr­iers had been reported compared with 63 cases and 41 carriers for the equivalent period in 1978. Diphtheria is not rec­ommended as routine immunization in ad­ults, but persons at risk (contacts of known cases, persons working or travelling in areas where diphtheria infections are prevalent, itinerant workers and persons in social care facilities such as correct­ional institues) should have a history of primary series plus boosters every 10 years. Poliomyelitis is an acute viral illness which may result in paralysis, chiefly among non-vaccinated individuals. Adults who’ have no history of vaccination (either with killed or live vaccine) should receive a primary series. For most adults who have had prior vaccina­tion, no booster need be given. Tetanus is a disease which attacks the nervous system and occurs most frequently following puncture wounds, lacerations or crush inuries. Almost all cases occur in persons with no prior history of immunization (usually adults) and more than one half the cases result in death. Adults who have had a primary series of tetanus toxoid should rece. a booster every 10 years, and where there is no history of immunization, a prir.nr - series should be carried out. Influenza vaccine should be given ann­ually to persons over 65 and to all persona with chronic cardiovascular, renal, brorcb-' pulmonary and metabolic disease. Ideally the vaccine should be administered by Oct.. 31st each year. BE WISE - IMMUNIZE!
