Australian Immunisation/Vaccination history?
Hi everyone,
I'm actually an Aussie/Brit (dual national), living in the UK who is immigrating to the USA. Confused?
Anyway i'm at a loss. I need to obtain my vaccination/immunisation history for the time I lived in Australia (1987-2001) for U.S. Immigration. I have contacted my old highschool, doctors surgery, HIC, Medicare and none of them seem to have my vaccination history. They say the only have a child vaccination register which records my history up to the age of 7, well we moved from the UK to Australia when I was 7 so that blows me out of the water there.
Does anybody out there know if there is centralised vaccination/immunisation register for anyone over 7 in existence in Australia?
Thanks in advance
James

In my area the local council runs immunisation clinics for children - which is where most of my kids shots were done when they were little. They were able to give me a certificate - to prove that my children were immunised - before they started High School.
You could try contacting the Health Officer for the council you lived in - but they can only help if you got your shots there.
