High-risk under 50s in WA soon able to access Pfizer vaccine

To date, 361,000 vaccines have been delivered in WA — above the national average.

“As of today we will be rolling out our vaccine dashboard that you will be able to access online — that will give you all the information about how it’s going, where you can get vaccinated, the number of people vaccinated and the like,” Mr McGowan said.

“So that there is up to date information on a daily basis.

“Shortly, under-50s in the higher-risk category, the 1B Category – people with disabilities, people who work in disability centres, people who work in aged care under 50 – will be able to access the Pfizer vaccine.

“That means that there will be both AstraZeneca and Pfizer available for that cohort of people, we hope that’ll increase the take-up of vaccines.”
