Notes

Amendments

Oct 2020 - The footnotes in the data tables: Insufficient physical activity supplementary tables, released 19 July 2019, incorrectly state that, for the 65 and over age group, minutes of vigorous activity are multiplied by 2. This statement has been removed from the footnotes where applicable, as vigorous activity was not multiplied by 2 in the calculation of minutes of physical activity in those aged 65 and over. There has been no change to the data itself, which were not multiplied by 2 in the analysis.

30 Sep 2019 - The source data hyperlink for Figure 3 has been replaced to direct to the correct data tables.

19 Jul 2019 - New data by PHN has been added to the supplementary tables.
