Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) chair Nigel Crawford stated before a Senate committee that he could not guarantee that Australians would not need more vaccines. He pointed to Israel and noted that they are recommending a fourth shot. Australians must already have the full two doses plus the booster to be considered “fully vaccinated.” Anyone over the age of 16 who had their second dose of mRNA will have their fully vaccinated status revoked after six months unless they go through the procedure again.
The government has already purchased millions of doses for 2022 and 2023. It began with a two-dose vaccine and then the third booster shot was introduced. Now many are taking a fourth, and a fifth could become available soon. How many shots are people willing to take before the majority stops complying?
