I completely reject the premise of the question. We have continued to grow and build the rollout of the COVID vaccines across this country, as we said we would, in line with available supply. We're in a very enviable position in this country. We have been able to start the vaccination process with a full assessment of each of the vaccines that we're applying by our world-leading Therapeutic Goods Administration. Instead of the relentless negativity of Labor, who seek to undermine confidence in the vaccination process, it would be good if the Labor Party decided to support the process and continue to work with the government in the interests of Australians to ensure that they have available a vaccine, which they will.
