COVID-19: Vaccination

The Operation COVID Shield has considered many types of incentives, particularly when we're in phase B of the program, not phase A of the program. But I tell you what we're not considering: we're not considering a cash splash. We're not considering splashing $6 billion to people who, by and large, have already had the vaccine. That is not the disciplined, informed approach the government is taking. That is the approach of the opposition, which has been rejected by the health professionals as a cash splash. We will not be indulging the cash-splash ideas of the Leader of the Opposition.
