This summary report on vaccine preventable diseases (VPDs) in Australia brings together the three most important national sources of routinely collected data on VPDs – notifications, hospitalisations and deaths – for all age groups for the three-year period 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2018. This report, prepared by NCIRS, has been published as a supplement in the Communicable Diseases Intelligence journal. NCIRS has published six of these reports since 2000. These reports serve as a national resource to support surveillance and control of VPDs in Australia, particularly VPDs targeted by the National Immunisation Program.
