Government intends to start boosters before Christmas using Pfizer, and then is "expecting to receive the bulk of the 5.36 million vaccine courses purchased from Novavax in the first quarter of next year".

Pin cushion? Pretty stupid comment isn't it? Many people are quite happy to receive an annual flu shot.
Are you afraid of needles? Some kids are ... :p;
Anyway - what is the alternative? You can either take the jab (with boosters as necessary) or you can get the virus "vaccinating" you. The odds to stay healthy and alive are significantly better if you take the jab instead of the infection.
Bit tongue in cheek that comment but you may not have picked up on that, never had a flu shot by the way, scared of needles well no as I'm very good at giving them and receiving them (During my training eons ago we had to practice on each other after graduating from oranges) Also injected myself when I had minor running injuries with local in order to keep training (Hard to do and a bit naughty)
Not much at all compared to other companies.
Esp in per person terms. A vaccine for billions vs a specialised treatment for less responsible people.
Quite meaningless numbers. Lets face it - nearly all companies had a quite amazing percentage increase in revenue and earnings since Q2/2020. This has nothing to do with creaming it, just recovering from the big Covid dip.
Remember ANZ's numbers yesterday? They just returned from quite low numbers back to normal ... and so did Pfizer.
