The easing of Melbourne’s lockdown, ahead of schedule, announced by the Premier on the weekend, was accompanied by an audible sigh of relief from most.– when there is the equivalent of one of Melbourne’s major hospitals full of people with COVID-19 already – and the number of people dying with COVID.
The vaccination target Australia has adopted is idiosyncratic: the rate in the population aged 16 and older, an age limit which is neither the population eligible to be vaccinated, nor an age respected by the coronavirus which can spread to toddlers and children.The 70 per cent rate Victoria is expected to achieve on Wednesday equates to about 56 per cent of the whole population. The 80 per cent rate we are on target to hit in early November is just two-thirds of the whole population.
Ninety per cent of people in hospital today with COVID are unvaccinated, even though the unvaccinated now represent only one-quarter of the population. Almost everybody with COVID in an intensive care unit bed is unvaccinated. As the proportion of the population vaccinated increases, the measure to watch becomes hospitalisations and deaths, rather than the number of new cases.Each death is a tragedy and a life foreshortened. The government cannot dismiss these deaths as collateral damage and must still protect all of us from being infected.
If only we had a competent government that delivered on promises, and not lies, spin and deflecting the blame 🤔
I know it's not the way, and is cruel, but if these anti Vax people are so sure they are good without the Vax, they should be good without the treatment for covid. It should be an opt out of treatment decision. Watch the Vax rate get to near 100% if this was bought in.
Not like they had 18 months to prepare. But hey msm has to keep going with the disaster porn takes which has characterised their horrendous coverage of the pandemic thus far.
Now the age changes there tune typical false news .

And yet, you have been pushing to open up for months. This is what we on Twitter have been advocating for, protecting our health system, don’t act like you’re only realising this now.
This is an appalling take.
But it will be a smaller pandemic
Hardly a “sigh of relief” with case numbers so high.
This article bought and paid for by the Andrew’s govt. Do yr job call out total lack medical basis driving any these decisions.Houses are bad - have 10 pple over. Hospitals r not ready to cope with 5 cases/day -let her rip at 2000/day. Vax rates barely 50% in high case areas..
At least your health sector received pay rises whereas Domi_Perrottet held back on pay rises in NSW NSWHealth when things were most dire (so far). This despite he and his colleagues being the cause of delta outbreak
