He argued while some of the blood clot links have been “blown out of proportion”, the Australian media cannot cop the blame for the government’s “deadset ordinary” communication.

“Where’s the concerted marketing campaign, allaying concerns and dealing in facts?

“It should’ve happened a long time ago.”
