Latest snapshot of the coronavirus impact

LATEST COVID-19 DEVELOPMENTS

* Medical experts say the federal government's aim to roll out vaccines for most Australians by October will be hard to achieve, unless jab rates are dramatically ramped up.

* The Therapeutic Goods Administration is batch testing the first doses of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine this week, with the aim of rolling it out from March 8. The first 30,000 doses landed in Sydney on Sunday.

* More than 33,700 Australians had been vaccinated by Sunday evening, including 10,000 aged care residents.

* JobKeeper wage subsidies worth millions of dollars have been repaid to the tax office. But the federal government says it won't change JobKeeper laws retrospectively to force companies to repay the wage subsidy.

* More than 10,000 NSW healthcare and quarantine workers have received their first dose of a coronavirus vaccine in the week since the program began. The state has gone 43 days without a locally acquired COVID-19 case.

* The Victorian government has called on its federal counterpart to be more transparent about the vaccine rollout, after doses that should have been used at a Melbourne aged care home were wasted.

* It's estimated more than 2500 Victorians have missed cancer diagnoses amid the coronavirus pandemic, with experts concerned the state will see a future "cancer spike".

* In Melbourne, 75 per cent of workers are allowed to return to their offices for the first time since the pandemic began.
