When I was a kid the Indian Govt went on a sterilization program to keep the population in check, think they might even given away free transistor radios if you had yourself done, lot of people got ill after the procedures both men and women, whole thing was a failure and mess....if ScoMo starts offering Ipods with every jab then run...
The Spotted One will likely know more about this than I do but I know many medications, including psychopharmacology, have an an accepted 'error or adverse reaction' %, generally <5%. Recalling again my Naval vaccination experience (way back when ships were wood and men were steel... sorry, an old Navy gag) you'd get in a line of around a hundred blokes and just about always 1 or two blokes would get really crook and end up not being accepted.
The TB was a funny vaccine... first you had a test under the skin of your forearm and if it reacted with a watery blister (few days later) that was a good response so you were then swabbed with the vaccine on the upper arm which was then hit numerous times with a needle. Sure enough a big scabby sore came up and when it healed you had this pock mark on your upper arm about the size of a one cent coin... a la TB immune.

If CSL cant make enough numbers then Pfizer will supply the rest IMO, they have been in talks with the Aus govt after signing a big agreement with Trump and I'd expect production to be staggered anyway with vulnerable folk and health care workers 1st cab off the rank. With what we saw with Qantas today looking at 4b dollar loss next year and companies reporting badly the pressure is on to get a vaccine and a lot of good will be shown by all countries to get the western world in particular up and running.

This spirit of co-operation -- so Aussie -- warms the cockles... now let's see it put into action and inspire many other corporates to see the bigger picture, the inspiring picture of 'the common good.'

Thats actually a worldwide thing, not an aussie thing.
Seeing what this virus is doing to economies, companies know they are better off working together and killing this thing so they can go back to normal where they can ALL make more money.
