    Claims Australia's vaccine rollout is a fail

    Claims Australia's vaccine rollout is a fail


    The country has more than 4.1 million Pfizer vaccine doses available, as an alternative to the Atrazeneca vaccine which has been linked to rare blood clots in under 50s.

    Australia correspondent Murray Olds says only 1.7 million of those Pfizer doses have been given out.

    He says it's disappointing less than half of the available jabs have actually been stuck in people's arms.
