Minister Scott Morrison asking to play a bigger role in the inoculation program.

It's got to be a controlled roll out to see how many get sick. I want the Pfizer vaccine because it's good enough for the PM.

Four million doses by the end of March...ladies & gentlemen (and those who identify as other) we have a winner in the 'Out Bullshit Donald Trump' competition. SloMo Morrison...take a bow.

On ya Scotty for the bullshit! Have you reached your quota. yet!!

WTF are those Canberra public servants doing They have 12 months to prepare this vaccination program and still they manage to stuff it big time. Make sure they are vaccinated last....that will speed them up.

MUST be because AnnastaciaMP and AustralianLabor hoarding all the VACCINE from every state ..

ljayes We now have supply of 1 million doses p/w from CSL. If ongoing supply is guaranteed at that level, we should be doing 1M jabs p/w NOW (no need for Feds to hold back 50% for 2nd dose) . We are not even close to 1M p/w . We need a clear explanation why this is not happening

Heard GP's who did not take up giving the jab was because the money they are paid to administer both jabs was around $50 all up.

The anecdotal evidence on the ground seems to be the antithesis of what the government is reporting each evening. What’s going on? Someone is telling porkies.

May be a 'missing link' between Sydney COVID-19 cases and US traveller | Sky News AustraliaNew South Wales Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant said there is a possibility of a missing link between the two locally acquired COVID-19 cases and a US traveller in hotel quarantine who share the same virus strain. \n\n“The sequence from our new cases matched with the overseas case who has travelled from the US and went to the Park Royal at Darling Harbour, the person was tested on day one and was positive and was moved to the SHA, the Sydney Health Accommodation, on the 28th [of May],” she said.\n\nDr Chant said NSW Health was “currently reviewing any CCTV footage to look at how transmission occurred” but said there was no direct link they had found.\n\n“We can’t find any direct link between our case so what we’re concerned about is there another person that is yet unidentified that passed it onto our case.” so slowly the truth comes out - the gold standard state of Gladbags has a failed hotel quarantine system
