“Here's an analysis of "fully vaccinated" as: % who received a booster in the last 120 days (as recommended by ATAGI, US CDC etc for vulnerable folks). New Zealand's turnaround has them back up to 11%. Australia's rate continues to slide, down to 3%. Any lessons to learn?”
Our early efforts to vaccinate (once Greg Hunt bothered to place an order) were outstanding.
However by July last year we had already binned more than 26 million doses. A crime when eligibility is so restricted.
