On Thursday morning, NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard said NSW Health has worked hard to expand its Pfizer footprint across NSW.
"We're making it easier for people right across NSW to access COVID vaccines as quickly as possible," he said.
"The more people vaccinated sooner in our state the stronger our defence against this extremely dangerous virus."
People aged 40 to 49 years can register for the Pfizer vaccine at nsw.gov.au/.
They will be contacted when a booking is available.
Around 23,500 people aged between 40 and 49 have already been invited to book a vaccine at a NSW Health clinic, with 12,000 people already booked for the Pfizer jab.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said it was great to see such a positive response from the public to register for the vaccine.
"I want to thank the more than 120,000 people aged 40 to 49 who have already registered their interest to receive the Pfizer jab," she said.
"We are working hard to ensure you receive the vaccine as soon as possible."
Tamworth and Orange hospitals are also Pfizer sites.
