COVID-19 Vaccine

Mr BELL (Mount Gambier) (15:13): My question is to the minister representing the Minister for Health. Can the minister explain to the house when the COVID vaccine will roll out in my electorate of Mount Gambier?

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education) (15:14): I thank the member for the question. The state government is working very closely with the federal government, who are of course the prime mover in this matter; they have purchased the vaccine. Indeed, along with all other states and territories, we are working on that rollout. In relation to what specific dates there may be that are relevant to Mount Gambier, I will seek information from the Minister for Health and bring back a response to the house.
