Protect yourself, your elders, and your community: get immunised now resources (2004)

Description

The Department of Health and Ageing and the Office for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health (OATSIH) have produced a poster about the National Indigenous Pneumococcal and Influenza Immunisation Program (NIPII) 2004. Jean Merritt (Ngunawal Elder) and Amanda Allan (a Bunjalung woman) have lent their support to the immunisation program and appear on the poster. The poster outlines the importance of pneumococcal and influenza vaccination and identifies those who should be immunised because of increased risk of illness.
