More than 33 million jabs have been administered in Australia since the rollout began at the beginning of the year.

Chief Medical Officer Craig Kelly says the milestone means Australia will now move into “phase b” of the national reopening plan.

Residents in Melbourne are preparing for their very own freedom day, with harsh lockdown restrictions being eased from Friday as the state of Victoria also meets its 70% double dose target.
