100,000 Australians vaccinated as more COVID-19 vaccine doses arrive – Sydney Morning Herald
Australia has now imported 1.3 million doses of the Pfizer and AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccines.
So far, 1.3 million doses of both vaccines have been imported ahead of the local production of the AstraZeneca doses, with CSL expected to deliver more than 1 million doses a week from late March. Half the supplies are being kept for future second doses.
Federal Health Department secretary Professor Brendan Murphy said AstraZeneca was going to be the workhorse vaccine for the country, because CSL will be producing 50 million doses of that vaccine in Australia.
