Mpox vaccination data

Overview

Mpox is a viral infection that has re-emerged in recent years. Vaccination plays a critical role in preventing the spread of mpox and protecting public health. This page provides data on mpox vaccination coverage across Australia.

Vaccination coverage

The data presented on this page reflects the number of mpox vaccine doses administered to individuals, as reported to the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR). It is important to note that reporting to the AIR is not mandatory, so the numbers provided may represent an undercount of the actual vaccinations administered.

Table 1: National monthly mpox vaccination figures, as at 2 June 2026
2026	January	February	March	April	May
Number of people who have received 1 dose only	680	630	670	620	720
Number of people who have received 2 or more doses	480	460	540	490	520
Total	1,160	1,090	1,210	1,110	1,240
Caveats: It is not mandatory to report mpox vaccinations to the AIR, so the numbers provided may represent an undercount of the actual administrations of the vaccine. Note: the National Total does not include doses of unknown state or territory There is a known administrative lag in AIR data. AIR data may fluctuate over time based on the timing of providers uploading vaccine administration information into AIR. Data with fewer than 25 vaccinations have been suppressed to reduce the risk of re-identification, and doses reported have been rounded up to the nearest 10. As at July 2025 mpox vaccination data was adjusted to amend a data quality issue.
