Premium Content Australia will have access to an additional 1.6m doses of locally made AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine doses within three weeks, as supply issues from Europe continue to plague the vaccination rollout. Prime Minister Scott Morrison yesterday laid bare the supply shock that resulted in 3.1m doses of vaccine being held up in Europe, while Queensland revealed it only had two weeks worth of AstraZeneca jabs left and just seven days worth of Pfizer doses. Health Minister Yvette D Ath would not say whether authorities were concerned, although the State will hit a milestone 100,000 jabs today. Ms D Ath said Queensland Health had already exceeded its target of delivering 20,000 vaccinations a week by mid-April, with almost 30,000 doses administered last week alone.
