COVID-19 vaccination rates continue to rise steadily across the North Coast.
As at 26 September, 79% of people aged 16 years and over had received their first vaccine dose and 49% were fully vaccinated.
Wondering how your local government area is tracking for first and second dose COVID-19 vaccinations? Take a look at our North Coast snapshot.
Overall rates in the region are increasing about 5% a week, which is on par with national vaccination trends.
A significant boost to Pfizer vaccine supplies, and Moderna vaccines coming online at about 90 of the region’s community pharmacies, should help reduce vaccination waiting times and see rates increase.
