We have more than 9,000 access points across Australia for people to get a vaccine now. That is only going to grow. We are working, particularly across western and far western New South Wales, with the Royal Flying Doctor Service, with other vaccine providers, with Primary Health Networks and with Aboriginal community controlled health services to make sure that we have even more points of access for individuals, as we're doing across Indigenous communities right around the country. The message must be clear: to take advantage of these opportunities to help drive vaccination rates even higher. (Time expired)
