Brimbank continues to etch closer to the 90 per cent double vaccinated rate.

In new federal government data released on Monday, revealed that as of December 13, 89.9 per cent of Brimbank residents aged 15 and older are double vaccinated.

That’s an increase of 0.6 per cent on the previous week, the second highest increase across the state for the last week.

The increase though is the lowest weekly increase in Brimbank in recent months.

Currently there are 12 municipalities in Victoria that are yet to reach the 90 per cent barrier.

There was also a small increase in the first dose percentage, which increased 0.1 per cent to 92.6 per cent of people 15 and older that have had at least one dose.
