To travel overseas In the 1960s and 1970s, one carried a Department of Health New Zealand folder with the certificates of vaccinations required. In those days one needed a vaccination against smallpox; and later against yellow fever and typhoid and paratyphoid, which I received in London before travelling to the Middle East for work comittments. The Covid-19 vaccination it is surely no different.

Regarding Dr Harold Coop’s letter (Weekend Herald, April 3) I’d like to add the observation that during my nursing training, to see the outcomes of children not vaccinated against measles, rubella, etc was terrible. Annette Stewart, Greenlane.
