Aussie vaccine production hopes dented

The federal government requested CSL consider its ability to produce the two in Australia in a bid to boost local supply.

CSL says it can’t produce the Novavax and AstraZeneca vaccines at the same time.

Treasurer Josh Frydenberg played down Thursday’s development, saying the government had always worked to ensure Australia had a “portfolio” of vaccine options.Josh Frydenberg played down the development, saying the government had a ‘portfolio’ of vaccine options.

Producing it onshore would place strain on the company, which has already shifted to 24-hour production to ensure it could produce other lifesaving drugs while meeting its AstraZeneca requirements. The government has been criticised for relying on CSL as its sole domestic vaccine producer.

Get ya shit together boys you've had plenty of time stop stalling enough is enough.

That’s because Australia kept bragging that they didn’t need it. Now look where you are at? You want it but you can’t get it, so how did your elimination approach go? That’s what I thought...

Typical, another false promise by Morrison dashed, sick of his empty words and PR.

Vaccine makers say that it will not stop infection or transmission.

ScottMorrisonMP - vaccine delivery needs leadership. We are getting none from you. Australia will be in a huge mess if the wrong vaccine is given. Pointless giving a 60% effective jab when hand hygiene ,N95 mask and strict approach to life will give you about de same protection.

We won’t take your “jab”. Piss off.

Pfft wouldn't have it any way

AZ is a very good vaccine, it will save thousands of lives globally. Stop the negative propaganda, you are giving anti-vaxxers a platform form to discredit such an important vaccination programme.

Good..stay away from mRNA experimental gene therapy.

Everything inverted, we know the signs

The World Health Organization chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan Yadav admitted that there is no “evidence on any of the [COVID] vaccines to be confident that it’s going to prevent people from actually getting the infection and therefore being able to pass it on.”

Just like everything else organised by government. A shit fight!

Thanks for the picture! Excellent!

All promise, no delivery.

Australia needs a vaccine against the LNP and Murdoch that also bought 50 thousand kilometres of redundant copper wire that they knew would slow down broadband speeds.

Yep. Hopes, shattered 🙄

did anyone tell him his mask was on upside down...?

Lol
