Overnight, a Queensland doctor said 100 doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine had to be destroyed due to botched handling during delivery.
"Every hundred, every thousand we lose is just gut-wrenching because we can't get the vaccinations done," Brisbane GP Ian Williams told Channel 9.
Dr Williams said the shipment of the vaccine sent to his clinic was transported incorrectly and arrived wasted, with its in-built sensor showing it wasn't held at the required temperature.
"The delivery driver said, 'Oh, another one'," he claimed.
Channel 9 reported that a second GP clinic in Brisbane also received a spoiled batch of 100 vaccine doses that were transported at the incorrect temperature.
