Immunisation by LGA
› 2006/07
This data set provides data on the percentage of children
immunised for key age groups by LGA and postcode.
Note that the ACIR data does have some inaccuracies. For instance,
if a child moves out of the area, they will generally show up as unimmunised
in later data. Variation in areas with high and low immunisation rates
can indicate partly that one area has more capacity to ‘clean’ the data
for errors such as this. There can also be difficulties with timely processing
of immunisations done through GPs rather than local government public
health units. It must therefore be assumed that the Register data understates
the true immunisation rate.
