Queensland residents will begin to receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine from Monday onwards.
"The plan is for the first 100 vaccines of Pfizer to be given on the Gold Coast on Monday," said Premier Anastacia Palasczuk.
“Then we will be giving some vaccines to the PA [Princess Alexandra Hospital] on Wednesday and then Cairns on Friday.”
The initial stages of the roll out will target health care workers and aged care residents.
Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said authorities planned to vaccinate 27,000 frontline workers in Queensland over the next month.
Queensland Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young says she is hopeful every resident of the state over 18 will receive the vaccine by the end of October.
