The ongoing COVID-19 vaccination confusion and shortage is leaving Queenslanders missing out or hesitant to get the vaccine.

After Queensland’s Chief Health Officer Dr Jeanette Young advised under 60s to avoid the AstraZeneca vaccine, against Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s announcement, more Queenslanders have cancelled their vaccine appointments.

The Queensland Health website recommends AstraZeneca for over 60s and Pfizer for under 60s, going first to those who are higher-risk.
