Question

Kyrina works for a community health centre that is currently tasked to deliver COVID 19 vaccinations. As part of the national strategic vaccination plan, the usual health care services delivered at the health centre have been moved to secondary facility 12 kilometres away. This has allowed the entire health centre to be staged for COVID vaccine delivery only. All individuals must make an appointment prior to attending for vaccination and are always required to wear a mask within the health centre. Kyrina is working at the screening desk, when she is approached by a man who does not have an appointment and is not wearing a mask, but demands to be given a vaccination, saying "it is my right to access healthcare in Australia". Following this, Kyrina is approached by an older couple who have come to the health centre to receive their yearly influenza vaccination. They were not aware that the usual health services had been moved, and state they are unable to travel to the secondary clinic. Kyrina knows that influenza vaccines are available still in their clinic and considers administering the influenza vaccine even though the services are not supposed to be offered during this COVID vaccine rollout.
