The Queensland Labor government will host a vaccination summit to look at how to boost jab rates and target vaccine “misinformation.”

Queensland’s Health Minister Shannon Fentiman on Oct. 13 said the summit aims to address “barriers to immunisation” and to discuss whether to expand the national immunisation program.
