Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has defended the decision to keep vaccine mandates in place as a major relaxation of COVID-19 rules is implemented on Friday night.

The comments come as Victoria relaxed quarantine rules for close contacts, vaccine requirements for those entering pubs, clubs, cafes and restaurants along with the scrapping of QR code check-ins.

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews says the vaccine mandates will be wound back when the health advice suggests it. Picture: Darrian Traynor/Getty Images The Premier has faced criticism as vaccine requirements still remain in place for some industries including the transport industry - with unvaccinated employees able to dine at restaurants but unable to work.he believed the vaccine mandates were forcing drivers – who are required to have three doses to transport food and two doses for general freight – away from the industry.

The Premier has denied claims that the transport industry is struggling with vaccine mandates, saying he is in regular contact with those in the sector. “We are one of the most highly vaccinated communities in the world and that is a great credit to every Victorian who has gone and got a first and second dose and the growing number of people getting a third dose.”

People will never be happy. Always find things to complain about.

So where is the evidence that proves that it isn’t “safe” for a transport worker or any worker for that matter to be unvaccinated?

The pandemic isn't over just because you believe Scotty Prayed it away.

Because the pandemic isn't over and Murdoch media shouldn't push the line that it is
