It’s very dumb that we have a delta outbreak, a mountain of AZ nobody wants but apparently we can’t use that and instead need to talk about redirecting Pfizer. Based on the current numbers if you vaccinated all of SW and W sydney like 3 people might get blood clots? Just start a campaign encouraging everyone in the area to get an AZ shot, and Pfizer can remain the preferred option for young people in other states.

Apparently 1 dose of AZ does bugger all against delta and the gap between AZ doses is pretty long. Seems like it won't be a solution to this current outbreak

At a couple of the press conferences they've said people should accelerate AZ second doses from 12 weeks to 4-6 and accept the compromised long term effectiveness since they can kick that can down the road and deal with it via a third shot or booster at some later time

i'm glad that i can get pfizer next month instead of dealing with all of this horseshit regarding a less effective vaccine that takes longer and is more dangerous that happens to be marketed by scotty from marketing's old coworker or whatever

Anyway the AMA are saying basically what I said https://www.theguardian.com/austral...obox=1627018277 quote:The president of the Australian Medical Association, Dr Omar Khorshid, says it is unlikely lockdown measures can contain the Delta outbreak in New South Wales and has urged the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (Atagi) to recommend the AstraZeneca vaccine for more age groups.

Lockdown measures seem to be working in Vic so maybe NSW should stop half arsing it like the pack of spineless neo-liberal fuckwits that they are. Edit: gently caress Gladys.

A thought: Gladys taking all the anger/resentment of all the non NSW states might possibly be good for ScoMo. Coz none of this anger/resentment can translate into actual votes. As most of us who blame her for our lockdowns, live in different states. And whilst we are blaming her, we aren't blaming the Federal Libs. Morrisson can do what he does, which is hide until it blows over. Which might be a while, but there is the Olympics as a distraction for the next month, which if we are lucky will get us out of the harshest lockdowns and people can start spinning any slight relaxation as good positive news. Which means come polling day, ScoMo won't have lost that many votes. And Gladys herself doesn't lose that many, as most of the people who hate her live out of state.

Periphery posted:Lockdown measures seem to be working in Vic so maybe NSW should stop half arsing it like the pack of spineless neo-liberal fuckwits that they are. People in the LGA areas with the most new cases are currently unable to travel outside of their area other than for essential work, there is also an increased police presence in those areas, not sure they be locked down any harder. These are also diverse areas with lots of people in either essential or insecure work. Compliance isn't the issue, the majority of transmission is occuring in workplaces, households, supermarkets and pharmacies. Like, they hosed it up at first and I'm happy to admit I was wrong defending it back then, but there aren't any more restrictions to add that would help based on the data that's been released. The high case numbers in disadvantaged areas thing happened in Vic too, and the solution here is likely similar to there, pay people to isolate after a test if they will lose income, bi-cultural communicators on the ground, and working with essential employers to ensure that workplaces are as covid safe as possible. But there's no guarantee it will work at this point because of the more infectious variant. We hosed it up by letting it get this bad before locking down and it may be 100% correct that vaccines are the only way out at this point. https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/a-city-divided-covid-19-finds-a-weakness-in-melbourne-s-social-fault-lines-20200807-p55ji2.html quote:Melbourne is a city divided. Of its five most disadvantaged municipalities, four of them have the most active COVID-19 cases. The fifth disadvantaged area is Dandenong, where the Spotless laundry is. In Brimbank, in Melbourne's west the number of active cases is in excess of 800 - that's more than 10 times the level of Boroondara in the leafy inner east.

No, it's actually dumb as gently caress and a bunch of people from journalists, politicans to ATAGI are to blame for some truly epically bad messaging over what is in reality a very good and safe vaccine. Antivaxxers havent even come close to creating this much vaccine confidence damage. 1400 cases of Delta and that has equaled the deaths from over 4.2 million shots of AZ already (there will be more) and there's more people in hospital being ventilated right now than reported blood clots in total. Pfizer has heart inflammation risks (12.6 per million doses, compared to between 16 to 20 blood clots per million for AZ) but I don't see that being made a fuss out of or much hysteria being drummed up. Of course It shouldnt be and nor should the hysteria about AZ exist.

Watching the Tokyo Olympics opening, and hoping Australia has some good things in the next decade to show off. Opening ceremonies usually celebrate a host country, and when they have previously hosted look at how they have grown since the last time. We're 2/3 of the way from Sydney 2000 to Brisbane 2032, and I can't think up to now of anything you'd point to since then.
