People under 50 asking for and getting AstraZeneca vaccine as older Australians hang back Josh Taylor Millennials are turning up to vaccine hubs to get the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine not being taken up by those over 50, as demand at Australia’s mass vaccination centres has not been as high as expected. A nurse at a Victorian vaccination hub who the Guardian spoke to earlier this week said she had delivered just one shot in an eight-hour shift. It was so slow staff had begun accepting walk-ins, even from those not yet eligible to receive the vaccine. Jacob Holman is 31 and not in one of the eligible phases but after seeing the Guardian’s article he went to the hub in Carlton, in Melbourne’s inner north, on Thursday to see if he could get the AstraZeneca vaccine.
