Start 4:30pm Duration: 120mins Monet<br />

Prevention of infectious diseases is at the core of good health and vaccines represent one of the greatest<br />

achievements of biomedical science and public health. There have been significant advances in the<br />

development of vaccines, which hold promise for improving the health of New Zealanders. From July<br />

2011, the Government will broaden the coverage of pneumococcal disease in New Zealand by replacing<br />

Prevenar with Synflorix (a 10-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine) on the National<br />

Immunisation Schedule. In addition to those vaccines on the Immunisation Schedule, there are others<br />

that are recommended and available in New Zealand but not yet funded. This interactive workshop<br />

will provide you with an update on the advances in pneumococcal vaccination in New Zealand and the<br />

implications for clinical practice. The workshop will also cover the latest developments in recommended<br />

but non-funded vaccines, including rotavirus and varicella vaccines.<br />
