SCOTTY FROM MARKETING, THE LIAR FROM THE SHIRE GOT PFIZER VACCINE NOT ASTRA ZENICA. YOU ELDERLY LOVED ONES CAN ONLY GET THE BLOOD CLOT VACCINE

When did the bright sparks in Canberra come up with that rocket science moment?

Can’t get a GP to visit a care home so no chance of one visiting someone in their own home. Hunt needs to wake up to the state of health services in Australia instead of living in his fantasy world

Are you kidding me? I assumed (naively I realise) that this has been happening since vaccine came out?!?!?!?!

There is nothing to filling a needle and injecting. Why not an army of nurses running around

Several decades too late but okay....

Yes, but how many will take this up going to someone’s home? You can’t guarantee their level of health advice adherence... This will only be utilised when they are in an overseen facility who have a Covid-safe plan, in which it should have been part of the rollout all along.

BULLSHIT STORY, SINCE WHEN HAVE GP's HAD TIME IN THE PAST FOR HOME VISITS.

Doing the work of the Fed Govt now, as they should have been months ago, when they were cut out by private contractors.

So what's a COVID-19 digital vaccination certificate and how do you get one?What may become a digital 'passport' out of pandemic restrictions is already available for those who've had the jabs. But there are questions and we're here to answer them. Can the Morrison Government just get the public vaccinated Look into the government's 'Healthi' app. It's an amazing resource that shows people their MyHealthRecord AND their Covid Vax status!! The one note is that initial set up requires the approval/link of services via MyGOV just like your centreline, tax etc. Isn't the real question: how do I get the vaccine... and a second dose earlier that 3 months ( 3! ) after that? Let's not make this all about total freedom for some while so many Australians are still sitting ducks: Is Morrison bringing some Pfizer in his cabin luggage?
