My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Aged Care, Senator Colbeck. Is the minister aware that today the New South Wales health minister, Brad Hazzard, confirmed that the gap between the first and second doses of Pfizer vaccine in Sydney will be spaced out to eight weeks? Mr Hazzard said: 'Simply put, there is not enough Pfizer in New South Wales, or anywhere in the two major states, New South Wales or Victoria, for the people who are now wanting it.' Will the minister acknowledge, today's announcement is not enough to fix this?
