My question is to the Prime Minister. Rachel, in my electorate, is 24-weeks pregnant. She cannot get an appointment for the vaccine recommended for her until 2 November. She's on the waitlist at five GP clinics and was turned away when she tried to get a vaccination at a walk-in clinic. In Newcastle another pregnant woman, just like Rachel, is in intensive care with COVID. How could the Prime Minister leave pregnant women so vulnerable?
