ABSTRACT
A retrospective study of hospital admissions of six vaccine preventable diseases from 1982-86 was carried out to save as a baseline data for future evaluation of vaccination programmes. Children between 1-4 years predominated the admissions in all diseases except whooping cough. The frequency of admissions of tuberculosis showed no change. Measles showed classical cyclical trend. Male female ratio was 1.8 1.0. The mortality rate in meningeal tuberculosis was not influenced by the immunization status. Relatively small number of admissions of diphtheria and whooping cough indicates a decline due to natural causes or due to intervention programmes.
