Immunisation rates for children in 2011-12

This report from the NHPA allows the public, clinicians and health managers to see the percentages of children fully immunised and how those percentages differ across the country. It reports these immunisation rates for each of the 61 geographic areas covered by the new network of Medicare Locals. The report's findings can be considered in the context of three broad themes: the percentages of children fully immunised and variation between Medicare Local catchments, and between age groups; the numbers of children who are not fully immunised in each Medicare Local catchment; lower immunisation rates among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
