A leading vaccine expert is calling for GP practice accreditation to be mandatory after an unaccredited clinic was found using out-of-date vaccines apparently stored in a household fridge.

On Wednesday, a public health alert was issued to track down at least 3000 patients who may have been administered vaccines at the Sydney practice over the past 10 years.
