Many of the trans women were Latin American immigrants and ineligible to get the vaccine in Italy.

Wow. Australia’s fucked and racist in a lot of ways but immigration status made no change on whether you could get vaccinated here or not.

It's not that they couldn't get it just that the government was not going to provide it. Italy got hit hard as fuck and had limited vaccines at the outset.

It was free for everyone here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes as well as many other countries, doesn't mean better or worse just different situations and different values.

And just to reiterate they could still get the vaccine they just had to register and jump through some hoops.
