Campaign Success!

After months of lobbying, antallergy.org welcomes the announcement on Friday by David Llewellyn, Minister for Health, that the State Government is now committed to continuing the Jack Jumper Immunotherapy Programme at the Royal Hobart Hospital.

Mr Llewellyn announced that not only would the current trial continue, with original trial participants continuing to receive their treatment, but also that there would be an extension of the trial over a five year period, with an intake of 100 new patients per year.

antallergy.org welcomes this announcement, and extends its sincere thanks to all who have contributed and supported this vital public health programme.
