Minister for Health Greg Hunt is not apologising after GP practices were bombarded with thousands of angry calls from patients following the botched rollout of the Federal Government’s COVID-19 vax booking system.

GPs say they had no clue that the online directory was going live yesterday listing the contact details of 1000 practices tasked with administering the AstraZeneca vaccine next week.
