Aged Care Services Minister Richard Colbeck says he is “very comfortable” with the rollout of COVID shots into residential facilities, despite figures showing 29 homes in Victoria are yet to receive a single vaccination visit.
“Some of them have chosen not to take the jab, which is I find a little disappointing, but it’s been their choice,” Senator Colbeck said on Thursday, of residents in aged care.
At a press conference, he said he was “very comfortable” with the pace of the rollout.
