It’s not new - it’s now part of the weekly update so it was in the one on the 3rd May, 26th April, 19th April.

SA now has one in near CBD with plenty of free parking. It's getting a lot of media traction. Both Pfizer for young people in 1A and b and everyone else in 2A has AZ.Exactly and we only have one state widely using mass vaccination centres (VIC) so once the other states catch up it will build again.
The other great thing is the more people get vaccinated, the more people know someone who has been vaccinated and the media beat up stories and people breathlessly screeching about DEADLY VACCINE DANGER become less and less effective. There will be a snowballl effect from this as well, at some point.
My entire (adult) family is now done in Australia, because most of us work in healthcare. Plus a couple who just asked to be done ahead of their cohort and were allowed to at end of day clinics
You keep forgetting Novavax where we have ordered 51 million doses.

Some reports tonight that a few people who registered their interest on the Service NSW website earlier today have been given appointments already
there should be no problem getting Emergency authorisation
I don't trust anything that Pfizer says.
No. I've amended my original post as I see I didn't specifically mention AZ when I "both". It's a dual Vax clinic.So SA is offering over 50s Pfizer? Unless you are an Aboriginal or Torres strait islander or a critical worker majority of 2A are over 50s and therefore should be getting AZ. Distributing vaccines differently to the recommendations will further delay roll-out for the majority of the adult population.
Sounds like it’s overwhelmed with bookings already. 3 month wait for AZNo. I've amended my original post as I see I didn't specifically mention AZ when I "both". It's a dual Vax clinic.
I have no idea of the messaging there from SA Health but I checked a couple of hours ago and found this - an appointment this Thursday!

I know. As I stated. I don’t understand SA Health messaging. I heard media reports which is why I checked. Incredibly concerning they comment without knowing their own booking system.SA Health confirmed a three-month wait to get a booking for the AstraZeneca vaccine.
But the TGA is issuing Interim authorisations.They issued one to AZ without the FDA in the US issuing any authorisation.So I don't see why the TGA wouldn't issue one to Novavax.The June date is the application to the FDA in the US.But TGA isn't issuing emergency authorizations, we will have to wait for full approval. I cant see that before September, if no one is using it elsewhere before July.
Surely there is real world data on asymptomatic cases in those who have been vaccinated with Pfizer, Moderna, AZ and J&J by now given the huge number of doses given?
But why not trust real world results ? Astra Zeneca is also Big Pharma but you trust them more, why?
Mr FM said to me some weeks ago, that he thought Pfizer was just better at marketing than AZ.But the TGA is issuing Interim authorisations.They issued one to AZ without the FDA in the US issuing any authorisation.So I don't see why the TGA wouldn't issue one to Novavax.The June date is the application to the FDA in the US.
Yes there is now real world data on the Pfizer and AZ vaccines and in both the UK and now South Korea the AZ vaccine performs just as well as Pfizer.
Astra was one of my more trusted pharmaceutical companies.Not as much now they are AZ.Boehringer Ingleheim was top of my list for being trustworthy.Pfizer in my opinion tried to mislead people in their communications.I don't think they have changed.
I agree but you really need to know the science behind the marketingMr FM said to me some weeks ago, that he thought Pfizer was just better at marketing than AZ.
