Educational and health outcomes of Indigenous children are extremely poor, particularly in remote areas. High rates of ear disease, particularly “runny ears” and “glue ear”, and hearing loss throughout early childhood contribute to developmental delay. Vaccines to prevent ear disease could be used more effectively. This project is evaluating a novel combination schedule of two different licenced vaccine formulations to maximise protection and improve ear health, hearing and school readiness.

土著儿童的教育和健康成果极差，特别是在偏远地区。耳部疾病的高发率，特别是“流耳”和“胶耳”，以及整个幼儿期的听力损失，都是造成发育迟缓的原因。预防耳部疾病的疫苗可以更有效地使用。该项目正在评估两种不同的许可疫苗配方的新组合时间表，以最大限度地保护和改善耳部健康、听力和入学准备。
