The full range of routine childhood immunisations are provided at QuayMed and are one of the most important services we provide. Immunisation has led to the decline of many life threatening diseases including, most recently, meningococcal B meningitis. The recent outbreak of measles in Auckland highlights the importance of maintaining immunity of potentially serious infectious diseases.
Babies are routinely immunised for tetanus, polio, whooping cough, diphtheria, hepatitis B and haemophilus B, which are now combined in one injection and given at the same time as immunisation for pneumococcal disease, along with oral dosing for rotavirus.
