The plan seeks to see all Australians vaccinated as soon as possible. I join Senator Dodson in his condemnation, over the last 24 hours or so, in an article that I have seen today, of those who are peddling antivaccine messages into Indigenous communities. I agree with Senator Dodson fundamentally, and the government will continue to work with Indigenous communities, state governments and the ACCHOs in the interests of getting as many Australians—including Indigenous people—vaccinated as possible.
