A conjugate pneumococcal vaccination program for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in an urban setting initially achieved poor uptake. A targeted intervention was developed to raise awareness among hospital staff, in general practice and in parents of eligible children. An evaluation of the intervention found moderate levels of increased awareness, use of promotional materials and an increase in vaccination. However, significant structural barriers remained.
针对城市地区原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民儿童的肺炎球菌结合疫苗接种计划最初的接种率很低。为此制定了一项有针对性的干预措施，以提高医院工作人员、全科医生以及符合条件儿童的家长的认识。对该干预措施的评估发现，认识水平、宣传材料的使用有适度提高，疫苗接种率也有所上升。然而，重大的结构性障碍依然存在。
