Australians will be ‘fully vaccinated’ against Covid by October, Greg Hunt says – The Guardian
Uptake of 80% expected, with health workers and residents of aged care homes to receive vaccine first
Australias Covid-19 vaccination rollout is expected to be complete by the end of October and ahead of schedule, the federal health minister Greg Hunt has said, reiterating that getting vaccinated against the virus will be voluntary.
Previously, Hunt said Australians would be vaccinated by the end of 2021. All three of the vaccines acquired by Australia: the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, the AstraZeneca/Oxford University vaccine, and the Novavax vaccine, require two doses spaced several weeks apart.
