It seems like Australia was onto this new treatment medicine very quickly. It seems like it was only in the media last week?
Greg Hunt says new treatment sotrovimab is being used in Australia
The Federal Health Minister says the new medication sotrovimab which has been used on those infected with COVID-19 is being used in Victoria, ACT and New South Wales.
Mr Hunt said he spoke to former Deputy Chief Medical Officer Nick Coatsworth about the use of the treatment.
"His message was that it's saving lives already, it's making a difference to the health of patients and they are using it in the ACT," he said.
On whether it was being used in regional hospitals, Mr Hunt said the federal government made it available to the states and they decided where it was allocated.
