People under 50 turned away from Melbourne vaccination centre

 


Athena Stathoulas was turned away despite having confirmation for her appointment two days ago. 

 

Dozens of people were turned away from a vaccination hub in Melbourne.

The new advice says the Pfizer vaccine is preferred over AstraZeneca for people under 50 due to concerns about a very rare clotting disorder.

The Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation says the AstraZeneca vaccine can be given where a person has made an informed choice.
