The National Immunisation Program (NIP) schedule is a series of immunisations given at specific times throughout your life. AusVaxSafety is conducting active vaccine safety surveillance of all NIP schedule vaccines used in Australia to ensure their ongoing safety. This surveillance has been undertaken by AusVaxSafety on a continuous basis since July 2021. Over this time, the analysis has remained constant and not identified any safety concerns.

In April 2022, the vaccine safety survey used for active surveillance of vaccines on the NIP was updated to replicate the vaccine safety survey used for COVID-19 and seasonal influenza vaccine surveillance to allow for better comparison across all vaccines monitored. Data displayed on this page show analysis of the new survey. Reassuringly, data from the new vaccine safety survey are comparable to the rates reported in the previous survey. 

This page reflects data from people who received a vaccine at a participating clinic and responded to an AusVaxSafety SMS a few days after vaccination. It does not include data from every person who received a vaccine. The graphic below will be updated weekly.
