Does the Premier have any targets for vaccination rollout for the second quarter of this calendar year or for the remainder of this financial year for the vaccines that the Premier and his government are responsible for administering—any targets at all?</text>

What we are doing at the moment, and we have been working on this since last year, is making sure that we have adequately trained, skilled personnel to administer these vaccines within our own hospitals and hubs that emanate from those hospitals and also working with the commonwealth government to make sure that vaccinations for people living in aged-care facilities, disability facilities and then the broader population occur in a risk-oriented, risk-managed way.</text>
        <text id="20210316807bf1684ba94caba0000450">I welcome the Leader of the Opposition's interest in the vaccine program. It is, as Professor Paul Kelly and Professor Brendan Murphy say, the largest peacetime logistical exercise in the history of Australia. What we know is that South Australia has led the way in terms of our response to the coronavirus, first of all with our sky-high testing rates here in South Australia through the excellent work of SA Pathology.</text>

On last viewing, I think we had something like 1.3 million unique users of the QR code check-in app in South Australia. These are extraordinary. This is an extraordinary penetration.</text>
