Australia has ordered millions more COVID vaccines than it needs. What are the options to deal with them?

Health officials and experts are assessing what to do with the tens of millions of COVID-19 vaccines Australia has purchased but does not need, with concerns some may simply go to waste.

Of the roughly 255 million vaccine doses the federal government has purchased, less than a quarter — roughly 60 million — have been administered around the country.

A further roughly 40 million doses have been donated around the Indo-Pacific region.

Some vaccine supplies, particularly Novavax, have hardly been touched.

Even with the increased uptake of fourth doses, Australia will be left with an enormous number of vaccines purchased but not required, particularly as variant-specific vaccines are procured and rolled out.

Health Minister Mark Butler has ordered a review of Australia's vaccine agreements, to be led by former Health Department secretary Jane Halton, which will look at what to do with excess vaccine supplies.

"If it does turn out that we have a surplus, then I'd want to have a range of options in front of us as to what to do with any surplus vaccines we were contractually required to take," he told a press conference announcing the review.

The federal government bought a range of vaccine options to provide cover should one or more fail to work, and built into that plan was the likelihood that if most worked, there would be plenty of doses left over.

Some experts argue while the early months of the pandemic were undoubtedly filled with uncertainty, it is clear Australia and other rich nations ordered far too many vaccines.

They argue the over-ordering of vaccines starved poorer countries of early access to doses, and those countries are still very slowly catching up.

And with a glut of vaccines across the globe, they now might not have anywhere to go.

Yes, a good number of Aussies are stupid.  That is clear

No excuse for you not to get vaccinated then, Sir Nail.

Plenty of vaccines available - and they're still free.

I may have mentioned this already but I believe the main reason now why so many Covid vaccines are being thrown out is because the population has been led to believe by governments, big business and the media that the pandemic is over and everything is back to 'normal'.

We've now seen a massive advertising campaign in the media urging everyone to make sure they're up to date with their Covid vaccinations and boosters but after being told "it's over" they really don't know what to do so they majority won't bother.

I noticed it myself when I had my 2nd Covid booster last Thursday at our local Terry White chemist - there was no-one else there waiting for a Covid vaccine and I had mine done 10 minutes before my actual 1PM appointment time.

Agreed.  There's no political appetite to keep trying to fix this

Hi Nail,
those vaccines are such a disappointment.
I think we should ask for our money back.   :(
