​We would like to kindly remind you to check with your paediatrician or family doctor that your children’s vaccinations are in line with the recommended vaccination schedule in Switzerland.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic there has been a huge drop in routine child vaccinations, leading to avoidable outbreaks of diseases such as measles and poliomyelitis. If this downward trend continues, we can expect to see more cases and deaths from diseases which are completely preventable.

Looking for a paediatrician? It is always good to go with someone coming recommended, so please ask other parents directly or through the PTA facebook page. This is a website where you can look for medical professionals close to where you live.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would have any further questions.
