Confusion and delays as thousands try to book vaccine shots – The Age
Thousands of Victorians trying to book in their coronavirus vaccines have been left confused and frustrated as state’s coronavirus hotlines buckled under the pressure…
The Alfred hospital, which runs a smaller vaccine clinic that opened to the public this week, is only accepting people who have booked in for an appointment through the hotline.
The COVID-19 hotline received more than 77,000 calls in just 15 minutes on Thursday, after the government announced people aged 40-49 would be able to receive the Pfizer vaccine, but first had to make an appointment. This prompted the government to promise more resources to ensure that more calls were answered.
