Reporting of pregnancy vaccinations across two data sources, New South Wales, Australia, 2017–2022
Despite mandated reporting to the AIR, there was significant underreporting of pregnancy vaccinations to the AIR when compared with the NSW PDC. National collection of accurate and timely data on pregnancy vaccination coverage is needed to monitor vaccine uptake, and identify and monitor strategies to improve uptake, particularly with the new pregnancy respiratory syncytial virus vaccine program in 2025. We identified co-administration as a potential strategy to improve influenza vaccination coverage during pregnancy.
