Scott Morrison announced on Thursday that the nation’s Pfizer vaccine rollout would be expanded to all people in that age group across the country on August 30.
The Victorian Premier said he had no prior warning the announcement was coming and urged people not to cancel their AstraZeneca bookings as Pfizer supply remained an issue across the country.“I wouldn’t be banking on anything being here in two weeks. “I haven’t seen that stock. Is at even here? I hope that by the end of the month 16 to 39-year-olds can get Pfizer I don’t know if they will be able to.”Daniel Andrews warned younger Victorians not to bank on increased Pfizer supply arriving. Picture: NCA NewsWire / Daniel Pockett“The federal government is entitled to make announcements but I’m also entitled to point out the facts – you can’t make a booking for this stuff.
“I haven’t seen it, is it sitting in a warehouse, is it arriving on a big military plane, I don’t know, I’m just saying, for heaven’s sake don’t cancel an appointment you’ve made now on a promise that something is going to be available in a few weeks time. “I’m certainly not barracking for the stuff not to be here. I would like it to be here and I would like it to be here in record supply, then we can get people vaccinated.”Get your political briefing from news.com.au's political editor Samantha Maiden.
Vaccine salesman
Is the announcement made by Morrison referring to only NSW because they have 500, 000 of the Pfizer vaccine that recently arrived directed to NSW?
What so now he’s got a hot line to Pfizer and he knows something the country don’t know
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Aussie politicians seem obsessed with these vaccines as they seem obsessed with locking up everyone for low cases of covid19. Even though these jabs are useless and do not stop transmission. Linking the relaxation of lockdowns with vaccine rates is a disaster.
Stop F***ing playing politics DanielAndrewsMP
Relax Dan, people don’t listen to the PM and those who do, laugh😎
We can't rely on Morrison telling us the truth. He's about marketing himself. Many are now holding back getting vaccinated and waiting for Pfizer or Moderna. Now more are likely to hold back. Then when the stock runs out..... groundhog day.

Scomo should not make Dan angry, he wouldn't like him when his angry.
Yes Dan, we are all in this together.
Scott announces things trying to look good but doesn’t talk to the people how are doing the things?!
