06/04/2021 “No one, no government, not state government, want to be responsible for having the virus escape into the community, in the absence of an early rollout of the vaccines they’re going to be vulnerable to that time after time,” he told Sky News.
Mr Middleton said without the vaccine there would be more variants emerging which would leave people more susceptible to the virus and states being forced to lock down. “We end up in a situation where we have more people more vulnerable for longer and the temptation and the requirement being for state government to take very heavy pre-emptive action.”
Despite the dangers to some ppl.
So why open up travel to NZ... why all this importing of Pacific Islanders to pick fruit
Pathetic... the entire government is about how it looks .. operating out of fear .. but not in best interests of all people whom they represent
Hmm...SloMo promised 4 million vaccinations by the end of March. Only 2% of Australians vaccinated so far. Sky News passing the buck for SloMo's incompetence.
That means at least another 6 months of snap lockdowns, probably more. The vaccine rollout is disastrously behind schedule. We’re talking 8 weeks and falling further behind every week. Totally unacceptable. covid19
