Community-led vaccination programs Getting the fundamentals right

Abstract

IN SEPTEMBER 2021, South Sudanese Australians in Canberra, ACT, piloted a community-led vaccination program. Arranged by the ACT Government and Aspen Medical, 120 vaccines were administered by nurses in a local school hall. Follow-up clinics were organised, and the program was scaled up in other Australian states and territories. This editorial highlights the program's key aspects.
