Why is Indigenous vaccination so patchy?

The head of the umbrella organisation for Australia's Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations says she's nervous about the country's reopening over the next month.

CEO of NACCHO Pat Turner says while some Indigenous communities are 100% fully vaccinated, others are far from done.

She says part of the problem is state and territory governments wanting to leave it to the Commonwealth, and also certain religious groups bringing in misinformation and myths from the United States.
