next list is prepared. Each week an alphabetical list is printed showing
details of all vaccinations and immunisations which have been given to

procedures, a higher total of fully protected children will result.
The following tables show the numbers of children under sixteen who
completed vaccination or immunisation during 1968. The figures compare
favourably with those for 1967.
