NOVEL CORONAVIRUS 2019 Alert !!!

NSW is urging all the residents to ensure they are fully awareness and protection of this new deadly virus. 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) was identified in China during a respiratory illness outbreak in Wuhan which started in late 2019. It cause respiratory disease, including common colds. However, are also responsible for MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) and SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome).

Human to human transmission is most likely to be through direct contact with case-patients, by respiratory droplets and by fomites (contaminated objects and surfaces)

How is it prevented?

It’s likely that general prevention measures used for other coronavirus infections will also prevent infection with 2019-nCoV.

• avoiding close contact with people suffering from acute respiratory infections;
• frequent hand-washing, especially after direct contact with ill people or their environment;
• avoiding close contact with live or dead farm or wild animals;
• travellers with symptoms of acute respiratory infection should practice cough etiquette (maintain distance, cover coughs and sneezes with disposable tissues or clothing, and wash hands).

When to see your doctor

If you have travelled to Wuhan City in the past 14 days and have a fever and respiratory symptoms (cough, sore throat or shortness of breath), please call ahead and book in to see a doctor.

Measles Alert 2019

NSW is urging all NSW residents to ensure they are fully protected against measles. Since December 2018, there have been 36 infectious cases of measles in NSW.

Who should be vaccinated?

• Infants should be vaccinated routinely at 12 and 18 months of age
• Any person born during or after 1966 should have two documented doses of measles-containing
  vaccine – there is no need to perform serology prior to vaccination
• Measles vaccine is safe – if patients are not sure if they’ve had two prior doses it is
  recommended to offer one or two doses 4 weeks apart (depending on their history)
• All doses of measles vaccine are FREE in NSW, including for infants, children and adults up to
  53 years of age (irrespective of whether they hold a Medicare card)
• Ensure that you and your staff are also fully vaccinated if born during or after 1966

NEW RECOMMENDATION – infants travelling overseas to places where measles is circulating can
be vaccinated from 6 months of age. These infants still need two further doses at 12 and 18 months
of age, commencing at least 4 weeks after the pre-travel dose.
