The mandatory training course for administering coronavirus vaccines will become slightly less tedious, but there will be no specific version created for GPs.

The  Federal Government is now saying that doctors, nurses and pharmacists no longer have to complete the first module which includes questions on the virus’ modes of transmission and common symptoms of COVID-19.

And they will no longer have to guess which questions they got wrong when completing the Q&A assessment.

Although attempts are unlimited, all candidates need to score 100% and the original version did not identify which answers submitted were incorrect, but just the number of correct answers.
