Vaccination Schedules in Australia
Australia conducts an aggressive vaccination program – far more aggressive than many nations in the world. A child born today will receive 49 vaccine doses by the time they reach adulthood, when the standard schedule has been followed to the letter. This rises to to 67 when the recommended (but unfunded nationally) annual Influenza for children aged 6 months to 18 years is included. Indigenous and medically-at-risk children will receive even more. See tables below.
See 1960, 1975 and 1996 schedules further down the page, for comparison.
