The case of a Queensland doctor who was infected with COVID-19 infection while at work, should act as a “wake-up call’ for all states to speed up the vaccination rollout program for frontline staff, the AMA says. 

The doctor was working at the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane when she treated a returned overseas traveller with the virus who had been in quarantine at the Grand Chancellor Hotel.
