Hi,
Are these phrases usual in English: "recovered vaccinal diseases" and "personal record of vaccinations performed"?
Thanks,
Joe
No, the first is not used. What does it mean?Hi,

Thank you for your replies.
Is "vaccination record" usual in BE?
However, here are the explanations of two phrases from the first post:
1) "recovered vaccinal diseases" - diseases which child has overcome since birth (for example Rubella, Mumps, etc.)
I have no idea about the first or if there is even a standard phrase. I'm actually not sure I even know what you meant in the first place.
For the second, as long as we are definitely talking about a record of the vaccinations that a person has received (illnesses a person has been vaccinated against), then I believe it's a [Personal] Vaccination Record or [Personal] Vaccination History.
Thanks.
I need both standard phrases, so I have to explain the first one:
- The list of vaccinal diseases/illnesses (vaccinal disease - the one you can be vaccinated against) which child has had since birth; if such standard phrase does not exist, is this formulation ok (italic part)?
I suppose that phrase (vaccinal diseases) does not exist in English, and if so I can use an explanation of what does the term "vaccinal diseases" mean.
I suggest you to not consider the phrase above (vaccinal diseases) as one given - I need 2-3 word standard phrase (if it exists) for this: diseases you can be vaccinated against which child had since birth.
Could I use the italic explanation (exactly, that's the explanation of the supposed phrase "vaccinal diseases")? I mean, would it be understandable for an UK doctor (and again, if there isn't standard phrase which I would use instead of the italic part?
Yes, that's what he wants.When you say "which a child had since birth", do you mean the actual disease? A disease which a specific child has had since birth which it could have been vaccinated against if it did not already have the disease?
Sorry about all the questions but it's difficult to come up with any suggestions if we don't understand exactly what you're looking for. ;-)

There is no such term in Australian medicine. I don't know about other English-speaking countries.
"Past vaccinatable/immunizable illnesses" maybe?
I think I realise now where part of my confusion stemmed from.
When I said "a disease a child has had since birth", I meant something that they were born with and continued to suffer from (like cerebral palsy).
I realise now that you meant any illness which the child has suffered from at any time during its life, since it was born (ie mumps, measles etc).
Incidences of vaccinatable diseases?
More guessing games?Finally! :-D :up:
We don't care if a child has had such diseases 4 or 20 times during its life.
If you can't think of a standard one at the moment, you can "think up" one (fitting the connotations above-mentioned) yourself.
