Australia news live: New Zealand travel bubble expected to be announced

Well, as you know, last week we had 1,500 general practitioners, the commonwealth-funded general practitioner respiratory clinics and we’ve tripled the number of vaccine doses being delivered to the people of Australia.

This week we will have an additional 1,500 sites coming online over the coming weeks. So by the end of this week we’ll have over 3,000 sites where people can receive the vaccine right across the country.

That will continue to rise over the next few weeks up to over 4,000 sites by the end of April. So there are many sites.

This has always been a program which is going to be ramped up over time and more and more opportunities for people to get their vaccines, particularly to get vaccines from their own local general practitioner if they choose or if from other sites located conveniently near to where people are living.
