AIHW - Immunisation Rates for Children - Indigenous Children Fully Immunised (PHN) 2012-2017

This dataset presents the footprint of the number and rates of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children aged 1, 2 and 5 who were fully immunised. Fully immunised means a child has received the scheduled vaccinations according to age for hepatitis B (hepB); diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough (DTPa); Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib); polio (IPV); pneumococcal, meningococcal C, measles, mumps and rubella (MMR), and varicella. The data spans the years of 2012-2017 and is aggregated to 2015 Department of Health Primary Health Network (PHN) areas, based on the 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).\n\nThe data was sourced from the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR), which is administered by the Australian Government Department of Human Services. The AIR is a national register that records immunisations given to children to help parents and guardians keep track of their children’s immunisations.\n\nFor further information about this dataset, visit the data source: [Australian Institute of Health and Welfare - Immunisation rates for children in 2016-17 Data Tables.](https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/immunisation/immunisation-rates-for-children-in-2016-17/data)\n\nPlease note:\n\n * AURIN has spatially enabled the original data using the [Department of Health - PHN Areas.](https://www1.health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/PHN-Home)\n\n * The AIR may underestimate coverage due to incomplete submission of immunisation records or the inclusion of children who no longer reside in an area but have not been updated on the register.\n\n * Children identified as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander in this report reflect the indigenous status recorded on the AIR, which is based on Medicare enrolment records.\n\n * Values assigned to "NP" in the original data have been removed from the data.\n\n * Rows assigned a "#" in the "Interpret with Caution" column should be interpreted with caution as these area’s eligible population is between 26 and 100 registered children.\n

本数据集呈现了1岁、2岁及5岁的原住民与托雷斯海峡岛民（Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander）儿童的全程免疫接种人数及接种率情况。全程免疫接种指儿童已按照年龄要求完成以下疫苗接种：乙型肝炎疫苗（hepatitis B, hepB）、白喉-破伤风-百日咳联合疫苗（diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough, DTPa）、b型流感嗜血杆菌疫苗（Haemophilus influenzae type b, Hib）、脊髓灰质炎疫苗（polio, IPV）、肺炎球菌疫苗、C群脑膜炎球菌疫苗、麻疹-腮腺炎-风疹联合疫苗（measles, mumps and rubella, MMR）以及水痘疫苗（varicella）。本数据集覆盖2012至2017年，数据按照2011年澳大利亚统计地理标准（Australian Statistical Geography Standard, ASGS）聚合至2015年卫生与老年护理部基层健康网络（Primary Health Network, PHN）辖区范围。

本数据集源自澳大利亚免疫登记系统（Australian Immunisation Register, AIR），该系统由澳大利亚人类服务部（Australian Government Department of Human Services）负责管理。AIR作为全国性登记系统，记录为儿童提供的免疫接种服务，助力家长及监护人追踪子女的免疫接种情况。

请注意：

* AURIN已基于[卫生与老年护理部——PHN辖区页面](https://www1.health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/PHN-Home)对原始数据完成空间化处理。
* 由于免疫接种记录提交不全，或登记系统中包含已不再居住于某一区域但未更新登记信息的儿童，AIR的接种覆盖率统计可能存在低估情况。
* 本报告中被认定为原住民及/或托雷斯海峡岛民的儿童，其身份信息取自AIR中记录的原住民身份，该信息基于医保（Medicare）参保登记数据。
* 原始数据中标记为“NP”的数值已被移除。
* “谨慎解读”列中标记为“#”的行需谨慎解读，因对应辖区的符合条件的注册儿童人数介于26至100人之间。
