Australian Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton has said that Italy’s and the European Union’s (EU) block on a shipment of 250,000 AstraZeneca doses of the CCP virus vaccine will not affect the country’s immunisation rollout.
Worried about suffering from a shortage of the vaccine supply, the Italian government stopped the shipment to Australia, noting that the country did not have a high prevalence of the virus, with lower infection and death rates than others.
