Many would disagree.
Not necessary given Pfizer was the vaccine used in the commonwealth aged care roll-out, you kowing of some exceptions in Victoria (which may have been state run facilities) whilst the gentlemen was in NSW doesnt change the odds that Pfizer was given.
Stark fact:
The Victorian State Govt controlled & run Aged Care facilities did not have one death in any of its 178 facilities during the 2nd wave. Zero deaths.
The Federal Govt controlled Aged Care facilities in Victoria had over 600.
Your nitpicking adds naught to the point that some fully vaccinated people will die because no vaccine is 100% effective and elderly people in aged care with comordities are the ones more likely to do so, just as is the case with the flu.
The many people in aged care who die each year despite having had flu vax doesnt make headlines.
We need to be focussing on the sucesses of the vaccination i.e. how many vacicnated people didnt get covid despite being directly exposed to a positive case, and when there are breakthrough cases how many had no signifiant illness.
You continue to state 'fake' claims as truths, make sweeping generalisations about 'everyone having months to get vaccinated' etc..
Answer one simple question - has the Federal Govt Vaccine rollout gone as promised for Priority Group 1A, all of whom were supposed to be given Pfizer?
Priority Group 1A subset Aged & Disability Care facility workers and residents were supposed to be fully vaccinated with Pfizer by week 6 - joint media release Scott Morrison & Greg Hunt - issued Feb 15th, reported mostly Feb 16th. = Fact.
There have been no disruptions nor delays with any Pfizer deliveries to Australia = Fact.
Federal Govt signed contracts with no tendering, to conduct the Aged & Disability Care facility worker & resident vaccinations by week 6, worth $167.5m with 4 private sector companies who had never been involved in any vaccination program in Australia previously, and did not have the staff to do so. = Fact.
With no media release, on April 23rd, the Federal Govt entered into a new contract solely with Aspen to vaccinate the Disability Care residents ONLY starting in early May. = Fact.
At that stage ZERO residents had received even the first dose as was revealed under questioning at the Disability Care Royal Commission special hearing, further revealing that a formal decision had been made in March by Scott Morrison & Greg Hunt to not vaccinate any to do with Disability Care until a later date yet to be decided. = Fact.
The April 23rd circular to Disability Care facilities also revealed that workers would not be vaccinated as announced on Feb 15th, & that AZ would be used where possible not Pfizer. = Fact.
As of last Friday over 30%, or more than 10,000 Disability Care residents are yet to get their first dose. = Fact.
