seems to be that the vaccinators are aware of the bullshit around the rollout and aren't gonna ask questions if someone is presenting to get a vaccine. been plenty of reports of vaccination hubs taking walk-ins at the end of the day.

Yeah, I've also heard (including a direct example of someone doing this) that you can just call around the places listed on the Fed's list of vaccination locations and find one able to slot you in with no real questions.

At the Olympic Park Mass Vaccination clinic a couple of weeks ago they were asking for proof of eligibility for anyone <39 years old. Knocked a bloke back.

I want to stress that yesterday, after a number of conversations with the prime minister, that I was advised by him directly that we will receive an extra 180,000 doses of Pfizer, which is good news, in the next fortnight, commencing in the week 9 August and 16 August.

on the other hand, if they're only aiming for 50% before opening 'er up, there's a good chance you won't have that one dose

a whiteman who has some authority over others, who not only hasn't raped anyone, or stared at them creepily...
So their current plan is to open up at 50% of the population, with vaccine passports. But the young won't be fully vaccinated, but they also run everything as the essential workers. Meaning you'll be able to go to work, to serve the elderly, but won't yourself be able to go places because you won't be vaccinated.

Is this actually the case? Completely hosed if so. The most relevant metric should be: has everybody had the opportunity to receive both doses of the vaccine recommended to them? Like in the US where they've had MRNA vaccines being given away on street corners for months now. (Then the secondary metric, on top of that, should be "have we done as much as we can to convince/bribe/carrot/stick the hesitant into getting one too, to get closer to herd immunity.")

Counting the first dose towards the vaccination target is, if anything, a stronger incentive for people to wait for Pfizer. Irrespective of age group. (Apart from the very large chunk of society that has never really given a poo poo and will just do whatever in order to end lockdowns because that's the only thing that affects them.)

Good to see Gladys go from blaming the guy that died yesterday for not being vaccinated to blaming one of the people that died overnight for only having the first AZ shot.

I think what she's actually flagging isn't a full re-opening, she's just said if they reach 50% of the Sydney adult population getting vaccinated then it gives them 'more options' about easing restrictions at the end of August. It's unclear what that means I guess, this below seems to be the quote. It does make it seem like 1 jab will count for that 50% number though so yeah I think you're right about that stronger incentive to wait for Pfizer thing.

quote:

“We know that 10 million jabs gives us 80 per cent of the adult population vaccinated. By the end of August, I’d like to see New South Wales record 6 million jabs because every time we go through a milestone, 6 million jabs is roughly half the population with at least one or two doses,” she said.

“That gives us additional options as to what life looks like on August 29.

Then today there was one example given in relation to the no jab, no work policy they're considering

quote:

In a situation where a worker and customer were both vaccinated, rules could be eased by the end of the month.

"Potentially, if someone that's providing a service is vaccinated and their client is vaccinated, we feel much more comfortable in relaxing that restriction on August 29," the Premier said.

Private school kids and kids of donors first, after that no more kids need to be vaccinated as kids don't get covid

Whilst I know the actual and depressing answer:

Is NSW Labor doing anything, anything at all to take advantage of Gladys's gently caress ups?

Coz surely, even in the desolate plague ridden hellscape that is NSW, she must be losing popularity. So a half decent opposition would at least try to capitalize on this yeah?
