In the first paragraph it was stated that "CDI is unaware of any such reports in Australia". The Editor of the Medical Journal of Australia has drawn our attention to an article on this disease by J. Keipert (MJA (1978) 1: 454-455) in which three cases were reported.
Brucellosis in Western Australia
Intestinal parasites in travellers
B-lactamase producing N. gonorrhoea. [Two further isolations reported]
Smallpox vaccination. [Brief notification from WHO as to which countries still require a smallpox vaccination certificate - update]
