Australians will be among the first in the world to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, if it proves successful, through an agreement between the Australian Government and UK-based drug company AstraZeneca. - Morrison Media Release 19/8/20. A thread on Vaccine Announcements!

“The Oxford vaccine is one of the most advanced and promising in world, and under this deal we have secured early access for every Australian,” - @ScottMorrisonMP
Despite promises we would be 'among the first' and 'early access', not one Australian have received a vaccine!

Morrison's vaccine program is another case of announcements and re-announcements with no actual outcome for Australians. It's all smirk and mirrors. Photo ops and no follow ups. This thread will list every major Media Release / Announcement on the vaccine to Australians!
Morrison announced a 'fast track' of $2 million in funding for COVID research that would also help develop a COVID vaccine. This was on 18 Feb 2020.https://www.pm.gov.au/media/backing-important-coronavirus-research
$30 million announced for vaccine, anti-viral and respiratory medicine research on 11 Mar 2020. https://www.pm.gov.au/media/24-billion-health-plan-fight-covid-19
The Government announces that we will be among the first in the world to receive a COVID-19 vaccine if AstraZeneca is successful. This was announced on 19 Aug 2020. Well, the AZ vaccine is being used in other countries but not Australia.https://www.pm.gov.au/media/new-deal-secures-potential-covid-19-vaccine-every-australian
Morrison announces early access to 3.8 million doses of the AstraZeneca Vaccine in JANUARY AND FEBRUARY 2021! This announcement was made on 7 Sep 2020 after already announcing that we would be among the first to receive the AZ vaccine in August.https://www.pm.gov.au/media/australia-secures-onshore-manufacturing-agreements-two-covid-19-vaccines
Morrison announces new vaccine deals bringing Australia's vaccine does total over 134 million doses on 5 Nov 2020. Yet, not a single Australian has been vaccinated.https://www.pm.gov.au/media/australia-secures-further-50-million-doses-covid-19-vaccine
Morrison announces a vaccine manufacturing facility will be setup in Melbourne on 16 Nov 2020. Apparently it will be the largest facility in the Southern Hemisphere. Not large enough to get any Australians vaccinated it would seem...https://www.pm.gov.au/media/1-billion-manufacturing-agreement-secures-australias-national-health-security
The Government announces TGA provisional approval for Pfizer and announces a rollout plan on 25 Jan 2021. https://www.pm.gov.au/media/pfizer-vaccine-approved
Morrison announces an additional 10 million does of the Pfizer vaccine on 04 Feb 2021. What a shame we are yet to actually vaccinate anyone with it! https://www.pm.gov.au/media/greater-access-additional-10-million-pfizer-biontech-vaccines
Morrison also said on 4 Feb 21 “We now have access to over 150 million vaccine doses, ensuring we remain a world leader in the fight against the virus.”
How can we be a leader on fighting COVID when we are one of only two continents on Earth to have not started vaccinations?

8 MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENTS ON COVID VACCINES! NOT ONE AUSTRALIAN VACCINATED!
A real leader doesn't make constant announcements. They deliver results. @ScottMorrisonMP is an expert at purchasing vaccines but a complete failure in getting Australians vaccinated.

These 8 major announcements don't even include the minor announcements, the interviews and other Press Conferences where Morrison was asked about the vaccine and reguratigated these announcements. If a tweeted about every mention Morrison made on vaccines, I'd be here all night.
Morrison promised that we would:
Be among the first to get vaccinated
Have early access to vaccines
Vaccinate with AZ in January and February 2021
Morrison has failed all of these. @abcnews @abc730 @theage @smh @GuardianAus @australian do your job and report on this!

Australians. You can't trust Morrison. He is a liar and has mainstream media on his side. These announcements are all from Morrison's website. They can't be disputed. Retweet the first tweet in this thread so we can spread the truth! Have a good night!
