The Bacillus Calmette–GuĂ©rin (BCG) vaccine is used to prevent tuberculosis (TB). The BCG vaccine does not prevent someone being infected with the bacteria that causes TB, but it prevents the development of the disease. TB is not common in Australia therefore BCG vaccine is not part of the routine vaccination schedule. However, the vaccine is recommended for children travelling to stay with family or friends in countries with a high rate of TB. Â
