Sydney has just gone into a ‘voluntary’ lockdown. A lot of stuff hasn’t been outright banned but the government seems pretty adamant that unless **** is absolutely essential you shouldn’t do it.

It feels like it's popping off all over the country today, hopefully they track down the passengers on that flight into Melbourne in a hurry and we can avoid getting locked down again.

I think they need to stop all international arrivals at this point until something dedicated to the task can be built because hotel quarantine is leaking like a seive. The delta variant is too contagious and we're just going to have rolling lockdowns at this rate.

The dedicated quaratine facilities will take too long.

They need to hurry up with pfizer vaccinations then live with the virus.

Pretty much.

It’s a shame the federal government didn’t take Pfizer up on their offer to have everyone vaccinated by March…

Yes it was madness to turn them down at the time and the full extent of this decision could be felt for 12 to 18 months.

If we added vaccine to the beer we'd have most of the country vaccinated by this weekend.

The flip flopping narrative and directive is unreal - a week or so ago AZ is being phased out and stopped for under 60s, now it's being advised as mandatory for health care workers. The govt is also looking to give indemnity to doctors dosing it out (don't forget most health care providers are refusing insurance for any health complications that can be linked to the Mrna tech) - these are great confidence indicators imo

I’m sure if they can add it to beer they can also spike the nation’s ouzo supplies with it!
