My question is to the Minister for Health and Aged Care. Minister, my constituents tell me that there is a 700-patient waitlist for the shingles vaccine at just one GP clinic on the Mayo south coast. It's reported that that clinic is limited to receiving just 15 vaccines at a time. As minister, what urgent steps are you taking to ensure that older and vulnerable Australians who need this vaccine are able to gain access in a timely manner?
