The July 1999 issue of the NSW Public Health Bulletin is now available at http://www.health.nsw.gov.au/public-health/phb/phb.html This issue of the Bulletin is the first in a series of two issues devoted to injury. This first issue looks at injury indicators and contains: an article on firearm injury and death in NSW; a report on childhood injury surveillance using emergency department data; and a report on head injuries in infants from baby-walkers, stairs and nursery furniture. Also, there is a report on Families First, a support network for families raising children. The regular Infectious Diseases Report section includes reports on: notifications for June, a rabies death from a dog bite in China, the NSW influenza surveillance update, a new scheme to deliver vaccines, and a report on the 1998 Measles Control Campaign in NSW. -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
