Resetting Australia's troubled COVID-19 vaccine rollout will be the focus of a National Cabinet meeting today as the nation's leaders gather to urgently get the program back on track.

Health Minister Greg Hunt said the nation's leaders would today discuss how mass vaccination centres would be run in tandem with GP clinics which are already administering the jabs.

"We need to be honest that the global challenge with the scientific information, which it was our duty to make sure was considered by ATAGI, and when they made the recommendations, has meant that there are elements that we are reviewing through the National Cabinet."Some doctors say the greatest threat facing the rollout is not the practical issues it faces, but the fading public confidence they are causing.

"It has been characterised as something that's chaotic and missing its targets, and with vaccines that are of questionable safety, and the most of that isn't actually true," he said. Pfizer is going to play a much more significant part in the vaccine rollout, as it is now the preferred vaccine for Australians under 50.

National Cabinet: where the Federal Government's failures go to be cleaned up by the States.

Reset what?. He never had any sort of plan

This halfwit should have got it right the first time! He had a year to plan it! Couldn’t order Pfizer when he got the chance! Passed the buck to the states for quarantine, border closures, criticised the Labor premiers for doing the hard yards. The list goes on!

Reset , reset ? It WAS NEVER set properly the first time

Totally lost trust in Scomo’s ability to deliver. He has over promised and under delivered. Time for him to go!

Is there anything the Morrison govt. can do right?

The only agenda he’s resetting is his political agenda. He will use this to his own devices to gain popularity. vaccinerollout

The 'National Cabinet'? The 'Secret National Cabinet'.....

🤔

The only reset going on here is of perception. There has been no failings on a state and territory level, its entirely Federal. Interestingly the framing that Morrison is undertaking is being bought hook line and sinker by all including the ABC auspol COVID19Vaccine BlameShift

Make border opening as a main agenda. ScottMorrisonMP
