A Labor MP with breast cancer, who has become one of the first immunocompromised Australians to receive the coronavirus vaccine, has told others with underlying health issues the jab is safe . Peta Murphy, who found out she had metastatic breast cancer in 2019 - eight years after first going into remission - was given her first Pfizer dose at Canberra Hospital yesterday. I m fine, my arm just feels like it does after the flu vaccine, she said. Ms Murphy has had radiation treatment and is now on hormone therapy and other drugs as she battles her cancer diagnosis.  Labor MP Peta Murphy received the COVID-19 vaccine from registered nurse Michelle Keaveney.
