Australians could get different COVID vaccines, CSL may need an extra year for a non-protein COVID vaccine
26 October 2020 - Multiple COVID vaccines could be given to Australians if proven successful to make up for a shortage of one type, a Senate committee has heard.
Department of Health Secretary Brendan Murphy told Senate estimates the preference was to secure enough of one vaccine but it may not be possible.
“If one particular vaccine that we have supply, adequate supply turns out to be the most effective we would probably stick with one but it is quite possible that we might end up with more than one,” Dr Murphy said.
