Letter to the Editor in response to the article by Borg et al
journal contribution
posted on 2022-07-24, 23:26 authored by Kristy Crooks, Katrina Clark, Natalie Allan, Paula Taylor, Adrian MillerAdrian Miller, Sandra CampbellAs Australian First Nations people, public health practitioners and academics, we would like to thank Borg et al. for the raising the importance of increasing influenza vaccination rates [1]. The coverage of influenza immunisation in Australian First Nations children is close to 50% in the Northern Territory but is very low in most other states, thus this is a topic worthy of research. We would, however, like to offer an additional interpretation of their study results.
