      Key findings - Annual Immunisation Coverage Report 2018

      2019

      This summary report presents key findings from the Annual Immunisation Coverage Report 2018 which focussed on changes in immunisation coverage among all children aged <5 years at key milestone ages of 12, 24 and 60 months between 2017 and 2018. The summary report shows 'fully vaccinated' coverage at 12, 24 and 60 months; individual vaccine/antigen coverage; rotavirus, MMR and influenza vaccination coverage; and coverage among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children while highlighting timeliness of vaccination issues as well as impact of remoteness of area of residence and socioeconomic factors on timeliness.

      Annual Immunisation Coverage Report 2018

      2019

      The Annual Immunisation Coverage Report 2018 is the 12th in the series, and shows data for the calendar year 2018 derived from the Australian Immunisation Register for all children aged <5 years. The report focusses on changes in vaccination coverage at key milestone ages of 12, 24 and 60 months between 2017 and 2018, but also documents longer term trends. ‘Fully vaccinated’ coverage increased at the 12- and 60-month milestones to 93.9% and 94.0%, respectively, but, in the context of additional antigens required, decreased to 90.1% at 24 months. The data analysed show there are continuing improvements in immunisation coverage and suggest potential new coverage targets for earlier protection in the first 2 years of life.

      Annual Immunisation Coverage Report 2017

      2019

      This 11th annual immunisation coverage report shows data for the calendar year 2017 derived from the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) and the National Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination Program Register. This is the first report to include data on HPV vaccine course completion in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adolescents. 'Fully immunised' coverage at the 12-month assessment age increased in 2017 to reach 93.8% and at the 60-month assessment age to reach 94.5% in December 2017.
