What's the childhood immunisation rate in your area?

Childhood immunisation rates have reached such high levels in Australia that 'herd immunity' would now be providing protection against a range of diseases for children who can't be immunised, says a leading expert.

New data released by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) shows immunisation rates have continued to rise right across the country. 

In 2016-17, 93.5 per cent of Australian five year olds were fully immunised, this is up from from 92.9 per cent in 2015-16 and 90.0 per cent in 2011-12. The national target is 95 per cent.
