I'm going to ask the health minister to add to my remarks, but more than six million vaccinations have already been done. That figure was reached this week. Only yesterday, I spoke with Saul Resnick, from DHL, whose company is transporting, via trucks, the vaccines right around regional Australia. That is significant. DHL have travelled more than 24 million kilometres to make sure that those vaccines reached regional destinations. I am very proud to say that the Royal Flying Doctor Service—and I acknowledge the regional health minister and the involvement he had with this—is also making sure that those vaccines get out to remote communities, to 80 communities and 30,000 people. I'll ask the health minister to add to my remarks.
