I thank Mr. Goodman. There has been talk about overpromising and people being overly critical. I want to emphasise the message that the system needs to be given an opportunity and time to respond. I am satisfied so far with the answers we have received this morning. On the roll-out by GPs and pharmacists, does it apply to the AstraZeneca vaccine only? What other vaccines that may come on stream might be administered by GPs and pharmacists? To clarify, I take it dentists may assist those teams in the mass vaccination scenario so I am inquiring about GP roll-out for other vaccines.
