Menta -- more of your outright lies - WTF !!!
You are slavering to swallow idiotic copypasta and regurgitating it mindlessly.
A GP in Australia requires 7 years of medical training.
A minimum of 4 years in university which where vaccines are covered in Biochemistry, Pathology, Pharmacology, Physiology and Microbiology.
So, it's probably over a 1,000 hours in university on vaccine and vaccine related subjects.
This is followed by 3 further years training to qualify as a GP, including rotations in different hospitals departments and non-hospital sites such as Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islanders Health Units
Ongoing professional Development at the RACGP enables GPs to stay up to date with the newest advances in vaccines as well.
So that's another 3 years where they get experience treating the public -- including paediatrics, infectious diseases etc.
Finally, they acrue experience in the real world by working as GPs in the community -- seeing patients 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
