Hardest-hit industries ‘want to be part’ of vaccine rollout solution

Committee of Sydney Deputy CEO Ehssan Veiszadeh says industries hit the hardest by lockdowns “want to be part of the solution” of the vaccine rollout. “What they’ve all told us is that they want to be part of the solution to get us out of this lockdown and to reopen again,” Mr Veiszadeh told Sky News Australia. He said this could mean either “opening up their businesses for vaccine hubs”, or "requiring their workers to be vaccinated”. He said, however, the state government should send a “strong signal” by having its workers be vaccinated first. “We think there’s a strong argument to be made that those workers should be required to vaccinate to send a strong signal to the private sector that their workers should also do the same.” Via news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site https://www.news.com.au
