The vaccination of students with any vaccine in this country has commenced only since 9 August this year. That data is not yet available for people who are fully vaccinated, because three weeks hasn't passed for a full cycle of vaccination yet.

So it's very cute for the Labor Party to come in here and ask that sort of question, but, based on the medical advice, we've commenced and made available the vaccine as soon as approved for use and supported by the medical authorities. We will be able to provide the data once it's collected and once the full vaccine cycles have been completed. With respect to staff, I'm very happy to provide that information to the chamber as I can make it available.
