Being a pro-vaxxer in Byron

The northern Rivers area of New South Wales is often described as a hive of anti-vaxxers. Is it true? And what’s it like to be PRO-vax in places like Byron Bay?

We’re joined by Marylouise McLaws, an epidemiologist from the University of NSW who is urging us all to get the vaccine….to save lives; Michael Lyon, Byron Bay Mayor who has been criticised for sitting on the fence in terms of encouraging locals to get the jab; and Nicqui Yazdi, a Mullumbimby local involved in providing vaccination facts who tells us what it’s like in local communities as pro-vaxxers mingle with those who refuse to get the jab.

In this episode of The Briefing, the backlash faced by pro-vaxxers in the Byron Bay Shire
