Vaccinating 80% of Australia in 8 months means 170,000 injections per day every day; 4 times the average daily number Covid tests (Apr-Dec). Our health system will struggle to vaccinate while fighting outbreaks unless quarantine flaws are strengthened before March.

The number of injections per day reduces significantly if you assume a) children aren’t vaccinated in the first 8 months and b) the single shot Novavax vaccine is extensively used for the second half of the period.

Any ideas what the plan is for children? Clearly they get sick and they do die. Do you know of any trial or vaccine that is likely to extend to children?
