Victoria’s vaccine hubs and its coronavirus hotlines have taken a huge hit as thousands of people rush to get the jab.
Queues at Victorian vaccination hubs have reached breaking point with some people turned away and others forced to wait up to seven hours for a jab.
The states coronavirus hotline has also crashed for the third day in a row, and technical difficulties have forced entire booking systems offline.
It comes as the state battles to avoid a potentially highly infectious third wave, with active cases in the state growing to 45 after five new infections were recorded overnight.
