The nurses’ union, the Queensland government, and the peak doctors’ body have warned the deployment of mass vaccination clinics will place strain on Australia’s immunisation workforce.
The federal government is considering whether to set up mass vaccination clinics, which have been deployed successfully in the United States and the UK, to help accelerate Australia’s much-criticised rollout.
Experts have broadly supported using mass vaccination clinics in tandem with general practitioners as an effective means of distribution. ....

Australia's Covid vaccination relying on opaque private contracts worth millions | Vaccines and immunisation


But the use of private contractors and the lack of transparency from government is obstructing attempts at accountability over other elements of the program, including logistics, planning and communication failures.
Questions about the rollout are referred to the health department by the contractors but the department claims information is commercial-in-confidence when asked about its contracts.
The government initially promised 4m Australians would be vaccinated by the end of March but missed that target by about 3.4m people.
Problem areas include the aged care rollout, which was designed to immunise vulnerable elderly Australians before winter but is well behind schedule.
Logistic companies Linfox and DHL are responsible for delivering the doses to aged care facilities, while the private health contractors are responsible for providing the immunisation workforce that delivers the jabs to aged care residents. ....

The Australian government is funnelling millions of dollars to private contractors for its beleaguered Covid vaccine rollout using opaque deals – some of which are hidden from the public and ignore transparency standards.
The government is relying heavily on contractors to aid its vaccine rollout, including multinational consultants PwC and Accenture, logistics companies DHL and Linfox, and healthcare contractors Healthcare Australia, International SOS, Sonic Clinical Services and Aspen.
But the health department has repeatedly refused to tell the Guardian how much each of the companies is being paid. It has also failed to publish any information about the key rollout contracts on the AusTender website, which is the public’s only window into government procurement. ....

The Morrison government says there is little evidence to justify a strict zero-tolerance approach to sexual harassment in unfair dismissal laws that would rule out reinstatement or compensation for perpetrators, as pushed by employers.
The Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry has called for a major overhaul of dismissal laws so employers have no fear in sacking proven sexual harassers after the government agreed to clarify harassment as a sackable offence but left it open for dismissals to be unfair due to mitigating factors such as harshness.
A spokesman for Industrial Relations Michaelia Cash said more evidence was needed to justify the reforms.  ....
