COVID-19 vaccination – Video – The Wirraka Maya locals protect the community by having the COVID-19 vaccine

The locals from the remote WA town South Hedland, with a population of only about 9,500 people, have come together to protect the community by having the COVID-19 vaccine. ‘I think the people of Pilbara should get vaccinated, they’re protecting their family and this community’ Alfred Barker.

I'm pretty excited to be here today to get my first jab. 

I wanted to get vaccinated, to keep healthy and not get sick. 

I'm vaccinated because I think it's important to keep everybody in the community safe. 

I think the people of the Pilbara should get vaccinated, they're protecting their family and this community. 

This is really important because if you live in a remote area, we don't want us to be going to the hospital. 

We don't want us to be getting sick.
