Immunisation throughout life is an important way to remain protected against vaccine preventable diseases, and not only protects the individual, but more vulnerable members of society.  

Our dedicated immunisation resource for the general public includes information on the HALO principle when considering immunisation for adults, Health, Age, Lifestyle and Occupation, as well as vaccine recommendations, answers to frequently asked questions and links to further resources. 

MVEC’s hub of up-to-date and reliable information aims to increase the public’s awareness and understanding of vaccine preventable diseases and promote the benefits of immunisation for people of all ages. 

If you are interested in collaborating with MVEC to develop immunisation resources, we’d love to hear from you!
