My question is to the Treasurer. In the September quarter, the American economy grew, the United Kingdom economy grew, the Canadian economy grew, the German economy grew and the French economy grew, but the Australian economy contracted by 1.9 per cent, the worst in the OECD so far. Isn't this because the government didn't order enough vaccines when it mattered and failed to establish purpose-built quarantine?
