Yes, but given the supply constraints I guess a lot of people worry that getting AZ now means they'll go to the back of the queue for a Pfizer booster later, and be walking around with AZ only while Australia opens up and floods itself with Delta. Or at least that's my personal concern. Anecdotally I know a lot of boomers are worried about the blood clots.

Even if we get to 90% vaxxed we aren't gonna drop all restrictions completely because of the people who can't get vaxxed and you can still shed and spread virus even when fully vaxxed.

I mean, what even is this? I know people who would serve this to me, but I wouldn't serve this to someone. For one, waaaay too many peas and corn. I'm going to ignore the steak because I don't like steak, but even if I didn't I'm aware some people would call it a warcrime. It's missing at least one other element, not to mention... sauce? Seasoning? loving flavour?

Come on Albo, you can do better than this sad meal on a plate.

A balanced meal rule of thumb is half your plate should be vegetables, 1/4 carbs and 1/4 protein. So yes that plate is missing mashed potatoes and wouldnt hurt to add some like beans or broccoli to round it out.

Federal Labor can win off Vic flipping. Chisolm, Deakin, Casey, La Trobe and Higgins are different varieties of gettable. I can't see libs winning anything they don't hold in most states and Qld are likely pissed off enough to flip a seat or two, however I don't know a lot about Queensland's electorates and I'd be speculating wildly rather than moderately.

And I haven't included Kooyong which is within the shadowy realms of possibility to go not blue, which is a win.

I don't give a gently caress at this point. Everybody has been given their chance and if you are still waiting on your vaccination don't attend a venue or gently caress up by going to a friend's house or whatever. Easy. If you haven't had it you can't work either so big shrug from me.

Unless you live in regional NSW like my friend who was only able to get their second jab last week despite trying since the very beginning to get jabbed with ANY vaccine including AZ.

Cool well they are well ahead of deadlines for venues and mandatory workplace vaccinations. Good for them for being so diligent!

Skated in under the deadline but many people including roughly 50% of their employees and by their estimation about 50% of their customers will not.

My friend posted:

Tl;dr Under 40's had approximately a 2 week window to start their vaccination process to be fully vaccinated by now in this area, if they followed the official advice, and sfa people would have been able to get an appointment in time. And now they have to stay home so Sydney can go out.
Does anyone know when I can find out the timeline for government advice on vaccinations? As a regional area Under 40's here haven't had the same time to get double vaccinated as Sydney.. and if I am right about the times for the official health advice there may actually be proof that under 40's in non-hotspot regional areas are being discriminated against on the basis of age as everything is based on Sydney, which had different health advice in regards to access to vaccinations for under 40's.
Can anyone help with me getting official information in the timelines? I'll be contacting NSW Health and all the local medical centers as well to see when they started offering Astrazenica to under 40's, because it was well and truly months after it was offered to under 40's in Sydney, and we were only recently able to get Pfizer. Unfortunately, due to supply of Pfizer going to Sydney there has been a significant backlog on Pfizer appointments.
Is it ok that under 40's must have two doses by now, if they haven't been given as much opportunity as those under 40 in Sydney? I'm deeply curious as to what the time margins are here as some have been lucky enough to get both doses (including myself, who actually went against the health advice at the time) but many of my friends under 40 haven't had their second shot despite all efforts to get one.
This isn't about Vaccine hesitancy, but simple access and time. Can anyone help?

There is also the fact not everyone can get vaxed for health reasons.

Those people should be front of the queue for health care.

The other kind of unvaxxed person who is a big dum dum should be at the back of the queue, they can have their free health care but everyone else who did the right thing should get their free health care first.

Health care will always need to be rationed until we can just inject someone with nanites no matter whats wrong with them and it stops them dying.

Mass casualty events are the most common case where triaging happens and people are left to die because it would take too much time and effort to save them.
