SYDNEY (Reuters), Australia will soon begin to administer booster shots Pfizer (NYSE)’s COVID-19 vaccination began Monday, as more people in Sydney, its biggest city, felt the freedom of a faster immunization campaign against the coronavirus.

After a long period of stagnation, Australia’s vaccination rates have increased since July. This is after it had missed its original targets.

Sydney and Melbourne were the largest and most severely affected by the Delta wave. They have been racing to get their vaccines before slowly relaxing restrictions. New South Wales will see a return to normal Monday as it nears the 90% mark for dual-dose vaccines.

While there will not be a limit to the number of guests who have been fully immunized at their homes, restaurants and entertainment venues may allow for more people. The stadiums are able to function at their full capacity, as organizers aim for more people attending the soccer World Cup qualifying match between Australia and Saudi Arabia.

Greg Hunt, the Federal Health Minister for Australia said Monday that over 173,000 booster shots had been administered to aged care centers and health workers in preparation for Monday’s official rollout.

Hunt shared his optimism with Seven News Monday, saying that the country is off to an excellent start.

People aged 18 or over, who received their booster shot at least six months ago, will receive the doses. Australia’s double-dose vaccination rates topped 80% this weekend.

Australia’s coronavirus rates are low, accounting for 181,600 infections and 1,827 deaths.

Victoria has the highest number of cases, with 1,126 reported cases as of Monday. Neighbouring New South Wales reported 187 infections. The majority of COVID-free states and territories do not have any cases.
