Vaccine coverage and role of school physicians for vaccination was evaluated among 1260 and 840 children respectively, in the State of Berne, in 1998. Vaccine coverage (three doses) was sufficient for diphtheria, tetanus and poliomyelitis (95%), but unsatisfactory for pertussis (90%) and measles-mumps-rubella (MMR, 78-80%). The situation was stable in comparison to the year 1995, only vaccine coverage against Haemophilus influenzae Typ b increased (15-20%). School children of non-Swiss origin, especially those born outside Switzerland had partially low vaccination coverage. The percentage vaccinate was 88%, 84% and 68% for MMR. There was no association between vaccine coverage and school examination by family or school physician. The Swiss Public Office of Health should be more involved with the promotion of vaccinations.
