Are Aboriginal people included in the priority list?
At risk Aboriginal people are captured in the priority groups listed above. For example, many Aboriginal populations have higher numbers of pregnant women, higher rates of diagnosed and possibly un-diagnosed chronic disease, and may live in remote and isolated communities. All efforts will be made to enable those Aboriginal people to have access to the H1N1 vaccine as soon as it becomes available wherever they reside, especially those who would benefit most from immunization.
