Australia offers AstraZeneca jab to all adults to speed up rollout

Australia is offering the AstraZeneca vaccine to all adults in a bid to rapidly ramp up sluggish vaccination rates as more of the country on Tuesday locked down against the spread of Covid-19.
On Monday night the government agreed to indemnify doctors who administer the AstraZeneca vaccine, which has been blamed for at least two fatalities from a rare blood clot complication in Australia since April.
