COVID-19 Vaccine

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (14:47): I will keep it short. When exactly will the other seven sites open?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:47): Just quietly, there are more than 70 additional sites, so if the opposition wants to keep talking down the program we will continue to remind them about what is the largest peacetime operation.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Leader of the Opposition should remain silent.

The Hon. S.G. WADE: What the opposition is really asking us for is before we have received the first shipment, before the commonwealth has confirmed the forward supply schedule up to the end of this year, they want us to tell them where all 70-plus sites will open. That is bizarre.
