Scott Morrison says his government has no plans to set a new COVID-19 vaccine target, conceding all Australians may not receive their first dose by the end of the year.

The Morrison government has abandoned meeting a fixed timeline for its COVID-19 vaccination rollout.

"The government has ... not set, nor has any plans to set any new targets for completing first doses," the prime minister said in a Facebook post. The rollout was thrown into disarray last week after health authorities recommended AstraZeneca vaccines should only be given to Australians aged over 50, following concerns about blood clotting.Health Minister Greg Minister has insisted GPs have not been put off participating in the rollout of COVID-19 vaccine program because of the AstraZenaca advice.

Doctors 'flocking' to vaccine program, as Greg Hunt says they face no legal risk for giving AstraZeneca jab

Oh Boy, ScottMorrisonMP , you're this close to just tell us to F-off with the questions and that you're out of your depth aren't you?...say it. You ll feel better. Just say it: 'I don't know'. Just let the state premiers do it. They *clearly* are better leaders than you are.

This govt plainly gives no shits about its people. They keeping proving that. They only acted when pressured by the Premiers. No lock down until after his footy & church do. But now he’s shat all over economic recovery. Not only can’t we not leave, but nobody can get in to spend.

Utterly incompetent. Remember this come election time

Is there any way that we can privately get Pfizer vaccine? It has started feeling like imprisonment on an island so far away from rest of the world.

Of course he doesn’t care as long as he got his jab

At least we know help is on the way.

Feb 4, Hunt announced we had 50m Pfizer and 50m Novavax. Where are they?

He’s got his double Pfizer dose so what’s all the fuss.

Could not organise a root in a brothel! I haven’t seen my partner for 15mths and now you are going to drag this out even longer due to bad policy & decisions! exemptpmv300

ScottMorrisonMP is a religious extremist with only a tenuous grasp of reality. He's helped those he needs to. The rest of his efforts involve maintaining his power. He's not concerned about the people. unfit extremist

Just so long as I get my second AZ vax on June 30, I don't care what his targets are.

Did Scotty and his government ever have a plan?

What is the problem? What is going on? What is not being told. Just give it to Australia Post, they would have it done and dusted before the Christmas rush.

No doubt Jen got hers too?

Australians will receive their first dose by the end of the world.🙌🏻 or will secure by the end of the Australian community.

Plz Australians, get rid of this clown asap. Thanks. The master of U-Turn.

ScottMorrisonMP has no plans for the future, Loser!

Morrison clearly stated a few months ago that 'All Australians will have the vaccine by October'

The only 'certainty' I care about is the ignominious eviction of this cabal of criminals from our government system. And the sooner, the better.

He doesn’t say it. He posts it on FB!!! What sort of shit is that!!

And do you think this guy will display some humility after his gross lies and failures? Not a bit of it. Morrison is one of the most slippery PMs Aus has ever had: he will obfuscate and tell bare-faced lies to stay in power. And at the end of it, pretend he's a real Christian.

ScottMorrisonMP ...snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. It’s time for you to resign! auspol

Sack the fucken dog's

So right after telling us he has ‘secured’ another 20 million doses by October, he can’t set a target because he doesn’t know what’s going to happen. Wow, basically he is admitting he screwed the pooch on this, or just doesn’t give a shit.

Unacceptable.

Stuffs up, lies, gets found out, gives up

The faker has given up. After a year of fake announcements and false promises, Oliver sudden it's just all too hard, and somebody else has to take responsibility, ... please.

ScottMorrison RoboScomo

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!!!!!

So where did all those billions go

BorisJohnson will fix it, surely? Tony's over there pretending to do some work for them. Something to do with smuggling budgies or vaccines or woreva'

Good! It needs more testing!
