[QUOTE="lovetravellingoz, post: 2296320, member: 5647"] Lucky? I am not sure why yet more bungling by the Commonwealth of its Primary Care Channel in Victoria is lucky. [B]This is 88,000 doses that were meant to have already been injected by the Commonwealth Primary Channel but they have failed to achieve it.[/B] I mentioned yesterday that we were still waiting to actually see a rise in terms of vaccines in arms delivered by the Primary Care Channel in line with the announced doses going to it in Victoria from supposedly late last week. Those 88,000 doses should already have been injected by the Commonwealth Primary Channel, and because they have not been the Commonwealth have now agreed that they can this weekend be injected in State Hubs in order to catch up. The Vic Gov offered to do this over a fortnight ago as it has spare capacity to do so its hubs and pop-ups, and the Commonwealth then allocated 30,000 Moderna doses to the State Channel. All the new GPs now joining should have been added months ago, and the Pharmacies over a month ago and they could have been busy vaccinating with AZ and getting all there systems in place. But instead here we are in the last week in September with the Commonwealth still not having properly deployed its Primary Care Rollout in Vic. Evidently it will take at least another fortnight for Commonwealth to et its act in order. So instead of getting all the outlets up to speed early, the Commonwealth instead has instead been commissioning many of them only about now. So not only are the now available Moderna doses not being used quickly enough, you also have lost several months of potential AZ doses as way too many GP's and Pharmacists were not approved to deliver any vaccine.
