Lieutenant General John Frewen urges NSW residents to get vaccinated

Lieutenant General John Frewen says all Australians may have access to two doses of vaccine by the end of the year, rather than the previous target of one. In an exclusive interview with Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell, General Frewen insisted he could not give extra Pfizer supply to New South Wales, despite pleas from Premier Gladys Berejiklian as the state battles the Delta strain. General Frewen also urged NSW to take up hundreds of thousands of Astrazeneca vaccines available for the general population. "We're saying every Australian who wants access to a first dose will have that opportunity this year (but) I think with the supply that's coming on, we've got a really fantastic chance to get the vast majority of Australians fully vaccinated this year if they choose to do so," General Frewen said.
