WADE:</by>  So if the honourable members are asking me, 'Will there be a mass vaccination clinic in terms of the size of Wayville?', no, there won't be because that service is designed to cover, if you like, the whole central region. The clinic at the Women's and Children's Hospital, for example, I do not regard as a mass vaccination clinic. There may well be community clinics in the western suburbs. They could be site based, they could be a pop-up, they could be mobile. There is active consideration of areas of lower vaccination coverage and that certainly does include some areas of the western suburbs that have lower vaccination rates.</text>
