The first local-level report on childhood immunisation rates finds more than 70,000 Australian children aged up to 5 years are not fully immunised. Immunisation helps protect individuals and the community generally against potentially serious diseases such as measles, polio, tetanus and whooping cough (pertussis). Although the great majority of children in Australia are immunised, it is important to maintain high immunisation rates to reduce the risk of outbreaks of these and other diseases recurring.
