I thank the senator for his question. I think the ramp-up of the rollout of the vaccination process continues to progress. And yes, I think it is actually going quite well. Yesterday was always going to be a busy day, the first day when Australians sought to gain access to the vaccine. In fact, 98 per cent of people who checked the website to check whether they were eligible for the vaccine got through the first time—381,000 people.
