This GP is meant to be vaccinating against COVID-19; instead he’s battling floods
Dr Simon Holliday's practice became an unofficial evacuation centre amid surging waters in Taree
GPs caught in the floods surging through NSW are facing large-scale cleanups as water levels begin to subside.
Dr Simon Holliday was expecting a delivery of 320 COVID-19 vaccines last Friday, stocking his GP respiratory clinic and practice in Taree.
Instead, the biggest flood in recent memory struck, cutting off roads, power, and sweeping one house from its foundations and down into a nearby river.
The Federal Government estimates that 50 practices expected to begin vaccinating patient yesterday were cut off from deliveries.
