I am a vaccination fringe case: need an AZ booster to keep my job, and I'm struggling.

Please note: I am not going to debate the date of being vaccinated or the veracity of my exemption. If you are going to comment about either of these topics I will block you on the spot.

So I got Pfizer as my 1st jab. Got pericarditis as confirmed by a cardiologist, and an exemption for mRNA vaccines submitted by my GP through official channels. Second jab was AZ mid December. I am now being mandated to get a booster or I lose my job. No leave, no entitlements, eat shit. I am able to wait until 3 months after my second dose by a paper thin margain to be eligible and beat their deadline.

However I am not able to book an AZ booster through the State booking system in Victoria, and HotDoc doesn't show any results for one near me, in Melbourne, or in between me and Melbourne.

Edit: you people are insane. I am double vaxxed, pericarditis along the way, official diagnosis, trying my best = downvoted in cvdu. What a fucking shitshow. So... wtf do I do? I guess I'm out of a job and will just be a bum. Any ideas?

(btw, this is what happens when you mandate shit)

Edit: after some phone calls I have a solution, so I'll be able to scrape in before my employer's deadline. I'm still going to see my GP to see what they think of AZ as a booster (from what I can tell it is next to useless as a booster), and maybe wait for novavax. I trust my GP and she is fantastic, so see how I go To all the people who suggested novavax: it isn't approved as a booster yet. To all the people who said I was lying about my employer's email; take a long walk off a short pier. To all the people who called me antivax: you are batshit crazy. To all the people offering me support: thank you, genuinely - I had a really shit day yesterday for a few reasons and it was good to see some humanity in the world.
