    She was trolled for getting the coronavirus vaccine earlier on Monday.

    And just hours later Carrie Bickmore was attacked for not having a perfect manicure on The Project, despite Melbourne being in the midst of its fourth hard lockdown.   

    After the 40-year-old posted a picture of the vibrant yellow outfit she was wearing on the news desk, Carrie was criticised for having two unpainted nails by ridiculous trolls.

    ‘Bad nail day,’ one commented. 

    Despite the mean comment, Carrie was also inundated with positive feedback from fans who were impressed by her dress by Australian brand The Significant Other.

    ‘Absolutely stunning as always,’ one wrote.

    While another added: ‘Killing it Carrie! Love that colour on you.’

    Earlier in the week, the journalist was targeted by anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorists for announcing that she’d received the coronavirus vaccine. 

    On Monday, Carrie posted an Instagram photo of herself receiving the jab on alongside the caption: ‘Vaccinated [thumbs up emoji].’  

    It didn’t take long for a wave of trolls to flood Carrie’s post with bizarre comments, accusing her of ‘selling out’ and ‘feeding into government propaganda’.

    Elsewhere, several critics accused the TV presenter of ‘passive coercion’ – a buzzword used by coronavirus anti-vaxxers to refer to supposed ‘brainwashing’ tactics used by celebrities to convince their fans to get the vaccine. 

    ‘Another celebrity using medical coercion. Getting paid, are we, to virtue signal? Full comedy viewing from here in the placebo control group!’ one wrote. 

    ‘Why do celebrities keep feeling the need to publicise getting ‘the jab’!? Passive coercion at its finest! All the best, guinea pigs,’ another sneered.

    Some trolls used their comments to perpetuate unfounded theories about the vaccine by insinuating that Carrie would soon die as a result of getting the jab.  

    ‘RIP’ one wrote, while another added: ‘Bye bye!”   

    Others simply expressed their disdain by posting vomiting face emojis, thumbs down emojis, and writing the word, ‘Unfollow’.

    The coronavirus vaccine is a vital measure being taken to protect the community from the spread of the virus.  

    COVID-19 can cause serious illness, ongoing health problems and sometimes even death.  

    The vaccines currently being rolled out in Australia are designed to ensure that even if you do contract Covid, you won’t get seriously ill.

    It comes after Australia celebrated several milestones in its coronavirus vaccine rollout program over the weekend.  

    The country notched its fifth millionth jab, while a record 88,000 Australians rolled up their sleeves on Saturday. 

    Around 772,750 vaccinations have been completed in the last six days, which is also a record.

    ‘We have seen the vaccine program is accelerating,’ federal health minister Greg Hunt told reporters on Sunday. 

    ‘As supply becomes available, the public is stepping up and doing their part of the job.’  

    An additional 100,000 vaccines are being made available for Victoria, where five million Melburnians remain in a 14-day lockdown due to end on Thursday.
