Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 38 asked in the Legislative Council on 5 May 2021 by Hon Rick Mazza

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

CORONAVIRUS — VACCINATION PLAN — REGIONS

38. Hon RICK MAZZA to the minister representing the Minister for Health:

I refer to the ABC news article headed ''State government's 'Roll up for WA' campaign will be a challenge in regional communities, says local GP'', which describes regional people travelling long distances to receive AstraZeneca vaccines due to limited supplies in their communities.

(1) How many weekly doses of AstraZeneca are currently being received in the wheatbelt?

(2) Are vaccine quantities expected to increase?

(3) If yes to (2), when, and by how much?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.

(1) Doses are not allocated on a weekly basis. Doses are provided commensurate with bookings received.

(2) Yes.

(3) See answer to (1).
