To add to the Prime Minister's answer, I can indicate that this week New South Wales is expected to receive another 134,000 Pfizer vaccinations over the course of the coming days. In addition to that, over the period from July to August, during the course of the next month, that will grow, on average, to over 200,000 Pfizer doses per week. That will be over 104,000 for the state government, and it will average, over the course of that period, over 102,000 for general practices. That will then grow, during the September period, to over 290,000 Pfizer and over 30,000 Moderna, and then, in the final quarter of the year, to 540,000 Pfizer a week and 149,000 Moderna.

As the Prime Minister said, the advice received from ATAGI, from SITAG, from the Chief Medical Officer and from the previous Chief Medical Officer, and from around the world, has always been that we start with the oldest and we work our way through, because vaccination will give the greatest protection to those people.
