Sydney will be lucky to get out of this by Christmas. Christ how is the LNP so protected. I mean, I know why. But gently caress me what a farce.

Glad they've succinctly announced some sort of maybe extra payment for maybe some people on some sort of assistance payment we guess probably!

The Fed gov disaster payment is going to be increased, it should match jobkeeper. This only is available in fed gov declared hotspots. There might also be an increase of 200 to welfare payments in the hotspots.

Reporter “cases really haven’t gone down with current lock down, what will change over next 4 weeks?”

Gladys “oh if we didn’t lock down there’s be way more cases”

That… doesn’t answer the question.

The question is disingenuous btw. Cases haven't really gone down is poo poo but still miles better than cases exploded, it's implying the lockdown is worthless and undermining the benefit and why it's needed. I wouldn't let that pass either but then I'd go on to answer proper.

Paraphrasing on my part with the question, he was really asking will the next 4 weeks be more of the same - 150+ daily cases. They haven’t really made enforcement of the lockdown strong enough.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the gold standard.

Guardian Au posted:

Only 60% of Sydneysiders are fully adhering to social distancing and movement restrictions, with analysis of movement data suggesting that unless compliance with rules increases, the greater Sydney lockdown will not quash the current Delta outbreak.

University of Sydney analysis has found compliance with restrictions across Sydney has increased from 40% to 60% over the last two weeks, however modelling shows compliance needs to reach 80% for restrictions to control Delta – with that figure including necessary movements of essential workers.

Once this level is achieved, it will take one month to control the outbreak, according to the University’s Centre for Complex Systems Prof Mikhail Prokopenko, Dr Sheryl Chang, Dr Oliver Cliff and Dr Cameron Zachreson.

The study also found that if even 40% of the Greater Sydney population was fully vaccinated by September, a stricter lockdown needs to continue until then to control Delta. In NSW currently only 16.9% of the population is fully vaccinated.
