Sharon Lewin has called on Australians not to put off getting COVID-19 vaccinations, explaining to The Sydney Morning Herald that doctors have learned more about the rare blood-clotting condition linked to the AstraZeneca shot and are beginning to see milder cases. At the same time, Guardian Australia reports that more than 1.5 million shots — or about one in every four distributed — are now sitting unused in clinics across the country. Scott Morrison yesterday declared he was “not overly troubled” by a new survey in the Nine papers suggesting almost 30% of Australian adults are unlikely to get immunised, although projections by the Blueprint Institute also show that, going off current vaccination rates, it would take until November 2022 for vaccinations to hit five in six Australians.
