Protect your children against
disease, through immunization.
This is what Ontario is doing
to help you.
Immunization protects against polio,
diphtheria, measles, rubella (German
measles), whooping cough, smallpox
and tetanus. Although often considered
to be "childhood diseases," they are
anything but minor—measles, for in-
stance, can lead to encephalitis (brain
disease), a cause of retardation!
Here in Ontario, the Ministry of Health
provides the vaccines and your Ontario
Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) pays a fee
to the physician for administering them.
But the responsibility for immuniza-
tion—for making sure your children are
protected — is still up to you. Have your
children immunized by your family
physician. Or, for school age children,
use school immunization programs pro-
vided by Health Units.
Immunization is quick and convenient
—vaccines against several diseases are
often combined. And the only way to
control these diseases' is to immunize
as many people as possible.
Your Ontario Government is doing its
share—by providing vaccines and pay-
ing for immunization through OHIP.
Do your share — make sure your chil-
dren are immunized. Consult your
family physician, public health nurse
or local medical officer of health.
A free booklet on immunization is
available, with a chart showing what
diseases your children should be im-
munized against, and at what ages. For
