A leading GP has come out in support of Scott Morrison after the Prime Minister blamed ATAGI for slowing down the country’s COVID-19 vaccine rollout.

Professor Simon Willcock says, while he is no major fan of Mr Morrison, the expert advisory group deserves some blame for discouraging uptake of the AstraZeneca vaccine — originally meant to be the bedrock of Australia’s fight against COVID-19.
