CONCERN OVER IMMUNISATION RATES

THE AMA warns vaccine hesitancy is rising and immunisation rates are falling across all age groups. Its report cites misinformation, anti-science sentiment, fatigue and time pressures as key drivers, threatening public health gains. Declines risk disease resurgence, more hospitalisations and pressure on overstretched emergency departments. The AMA urges urgent action now, rebuilding trust through GPs, increased investment in general practice, and conversations with doctors to boost coverage and save lives.
